Downtown Cab Co. GTA 5 guide, walkthrough
Last update: 25 May 2016
Private fare - a rich teenager
You may receive a phone call from the manager of a cab company, who is asking you to serve a special guest, who demanded the best driver to take him to the spot of his choice. After you confirm that you want to take the fare (you can also refuse it, of course), and reach the place of collection of the teenager. The lad will make an additional request that you perform dangerous maneuvers on the way to the destination point. So, you can consider driving against the traffic, along the sidewalk and wilderness, as well as jumps and entering sharp turns using the handbrake. To perform all of the activities, use Franklin's special skill to your aid.
Rewards for the completion of the mission:
cash (base + bonus based on how long and how eventful the ride was)
Private fare- concerned uncle
You may receive a phone call from the manager of the cab corporation, with a request to serve a special client, who demanded the best driver to take him to the spot of his choice. After you confirm the fare, (you can also refuse it) reach the spot where you are supposed to collect the man. Franklin will be asked to reach the port, where the nephew of the client spends his time in bad company. After you get there, park the car in the marked area and watch the course of the events (you can use the movie camera).
Be prepared to deal with the members of The Lost MC biker gang and, since you are playing as Franklin, it would be a good idea to start the time-slowing skill before you exit the car and eliminate those of the enemies that are the closest to you. This is not the end to your problems, because there will be further bikers to come. Hide behind a cover and eliminate them also. During the fights, try to act fast and, to the extent possible, divert attention from the man that you have brought to the docks, thanks to which you will prevent him from dying.
Rewards for the completion of the mission:
cash
Private fare - the jewel store heist
You may receive a phone call from the manager of the cab corporation, with a request to serve a special client, who demanded the best driver to take him to the spot of his choice. After you confirm the fare, (you can also refuse it) reach the spot where you are supposed to collect the man. Soon after the ride starts, you will learn that the client is about to carry out a heist on one of the jewel stores. Park your car in the designated area and wait for derrick to return to the car after the not-so-successful job. I recommend that you look out for the nearby alleys as quickly as possible , or for a multi-storey parking lot because a police pursuit is quick to happen, and you will have to shake it off. Eventually, take the man to the airport.
Rewards for the completion of this mission:
cash (base fare + a bonus of 10000 dollars+ an additional bonus dependant on how long the pursuit was)
Private fare - a drunken client

After you confirm the fare, (you can also refuse it) reach the spot where you are supposed to collect the man. The intoxicated client will ask Franklin to drive smoothly and, if you do not want him to vomit while in the cab, or demand to stop, you cannot go too fast. It is also very important that you do not bump into any other vehicles, the elements of the surroundings or pedestrians.
Rewards for the completion of this mission:
cash (base fare + a bonus for not causing the passenger to vomit)
Private fare - a jealous fiancée
You may receive a phone call from the manager of the cab corporation with a request to serve a special client, who demanded the best driver to drive her.

The girl will ask you to take her to her fiancé's workplace, and then to start following him. While following the man, do not come too close to the car that you follow, because this may result in failing the mission(keep using the radar's readings). After the fiancé's car stops on the parking lot, wait for the instructions and approach the spot to see a quite unexpected ending to the mission.
