  Your calculation is correct. I have another point to add to the advantages. No need to worry about finding a parking lot.
  
  However, there are other things to weigh. For example, taxis still cannot beat the convenience of owning a car. Sometimes u just cannot get a taxi by the road or even at the taxi stand. And even if u call for taxi, there's still some waiting time involved, worse if it's during peak hours.
  
  And there are other factors like the irritating taxi driver, the hell rider, the tortoise driver, the smoker driver, the high aircon driver, the low aircon driver, the smelly taxi, the lost-the-way driver, the purposely-lost-the-way driver, the overly-friendly driver etc.
  
  And for music lovers, you cant get to choose your favourite radio station or listen to your favourite CD.
