Taxi
Taxi, Stop Sign, and Space Shuttle are an object in Pizza Tower.
Description
Taxi is a regular yellow taxi with a large white flashing sign reading "TAXI" in black.
Stop Sign is a regular white stop sign with red borders and red text reading "STOP". It is held by a faded blue holed metal support.
In Deep-Dish 9, Taxi takes form of a grey Space Shuttle with red parts.
Behaviour
When the player presses up while in front of a Taxi, they will be driven to its corresponding Stop Sign somewhere within the level. Stop Signs cannot be used to retrieve a Taxi.
Fake Taxis and the Space Shuttle work exactly like Taxis but expect with some minor differences.
Fake Taxis get revealed to be a police car in the last room before switching to Gustavo And Brick in the The Pig City.
Space Shuttles are instead rockets the Player rides in to go into other planets in Deep-Dish 9, crashing the rocket.

Trivia
Remember to read the wiki's trivia guidelines before adding trivia or making changes.
- In older demos, Taxis worked identically to Teleporter Pizzas, driving the player on touch to a corresponding Stop Sign in the room. When the Teleporter Pizza was created, all Taxis in previous levels were replaced with Teleporter Pizzas most likely because they're faster as they do not play any sort of animation. This change lead to Taxis mostly being used to transport the player to somewhere outside the room they're in or to a specific point in a level that must be gone through multiple times.
- The rockets are likely a reference to similar rockets found in Super Mario Bros 2.
