Veteran Vegas visitors know that cabbies may try to rip them off by "long hauling" them to their Strip hotel from the airport by taking the tunnel.

I'm wondering, if one is taking a cab downtown is the opposite true? Are you being long hauled if the cab does not take the tunnel?

BYW, the LV RJ ran an article in July showing the results of an NTA investigation showing how rampant long hauling is in Vegas. Follow the link.
