Even long time residents of the city carry maps in their pockets to help navigate randomly arranged one-way streets. Washington D.C. has one of the cheapest cab fares in the country. This is due to a zone scheme rather than the use of meters. The city is divided into five main zones and eight subzones. Most fares begin at $4.
