How can I reduce the risk of an unexpectedly high Sydney taxi fare?

I have read accounts of overcharging and want a practical way to check the ride and payment.

    Use an official taxi rank or reputable booking channel, and check that the meter is running for a metered trip. Ask about tolls, airport charges and card surcharges before leaving if they affect your route.
