Amazing Race Questions
theschnauzers:
CBS is also posting new material in addition to the Insider videos. "Race in the Raw," at the official site is but one of them.

Marty & Hagan's elimination had me thinking:
Can a team get a cab driver to remove another team's bags from the cab?
At first, I thought they had no chance of surviving after leaving their cab miles away, BUT: what if they got the cab driver to remove the bags and took the cab to their original cab? (or simply steal it)
Or is the rule strictly: You can't take a cab with bags in it.

Adding to that, can teams use cabs with bags in them (then the driver goes back to fetch the other team :lol: )?
G.B.:
Teams cannot physically move another team's bags, which includes driving off with them in their vehicle or a taxi. They also cannot instruct a taxi driver to remove the bags, as this is indirectly moving their bags.
If the taxi driver removes the bags of his own volition, if he is perhaps tired of sitting there waiting, then teams are free to take the taxi. This was not bound to happen for Marty & Hagan, however, because the taxis in Cartagena were hired by production (as they were marked with race flags)

Thanks!
I did notice the race flags. That leads me to another question :lol: Why would production need to hire taxis? Safety reasons??
