My point is : don't merge features in the same tag !
That makes thing more difficult to tag and more difficult to consume.
Indonesia is big but world is bigger, and I'm pretty sure we can find
examples where different kind of vehicles shares the same taxi spot.

(You can use any british word for that taxi spot tag I don't mind).
