Are local buses, trams, trains or taxis safe and affordable?

Taxis are affordable, but I can't vouch for safe. While vehicles require road-worthiness testing, it ain't like the US, and you can bribe your way to the window sticker. Local trains are almost non-existent, real buses are fairly new on the scene, maybe the last 2 years or so. Local transport is mini-vans and vans called trotros that may not be safe, but are incredibly cheap to ride. - Dec 2006
