While the vast absolute overwhelming majority of standard digital taxi meters utilized heavily in Colombo are highly strictly regulated by the government completely honest and deeply reliable occasional malicious tampering does historically sporadically occur.

A shady driver might illegally severely alter the hidden internal calibration causing the displayed fare digits to actively tick upward insanely rapidly even when the vehicle is physically stuck completely motionless in heavy traffic. The absolute best flawless highly stress free defense strategy against this frustrating trap is to strictly exclusively use the thoroughly tracked highly established PickMe app which totally circumvents the physical meter entirely.
