Good day,
Despite these modes of transport being used by billions of people there
still isn't really any established or properly documented way to map
them in OSM yet.
A proposal to introduce the tag amenity=motorcycle_taxi
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Tag:amenity%3Dmotorcycle_taxi>
was rejected quite strongly.
There is a very minor usage of
taxi_type=motorcycle/auto_rickshaw/cycle_rickshaw but there hasn't been
any formal proposal for this.

Hello everyone,
In Madagascar we have all of these :
- motorcyle taxis (ojek/boda boda...)
- bicycle taxis
- auto rickshaws (tuk tuk/bajaj)
- cycle rickshaws
- human pulled rickshaws (pousse pousse)
Tried to search the wiki, this mailing lists
, taginfo... but havent found proper tags.
Has the OSM data model evolved since and are there proper ways to tag
these? Do these fall under amenity=taxi?

In Yogjakarta (Indonesia) you can hire 5 different rides with
different names
1) taxi (motorcar) - called a “taksi”
2) pedicab (pedaled tricycle) - called a “becak”
3) motorcycle “taxi” - called a “Ojek” (a private motorcycle is a
“motor)
4) auto rickshaw - called a “bemo” or “bajai”
5) horse-drawn carriage - called a “dokar” or “andong” depending
on if 2 or 4 wheels. These are becoming rare now, so I haven’t
mentioned them before.
A horse-drawn carriage can hold 8 people with luggage, but a
motorcycle only carried 1 or 2 without luggage, so they are quite
different features. And the bicycle rickshaw/pedicab won’t go up
hills and can’t carry too much weight. I believe they deserve
different tags.

Is "pedicab" the best British English / International
English term for
these hired tricycles vehicles?
That's what I've always known them as.
There are also "motorcycle rickshaws", called "tuk-tuk"
in Thailand
and "bemo" or "bajai" here in Indonesia. They are 3
wheeled vehicles
with 1 or 2 covered bench seats in the back, and the
front is like
part of a motorcycle.
These probably need a different tag. Is there a standard
British
English term for these?
As they are not common in the UK (someone rode a tuk-tuk back
from India so there is at least one there) they don't have a
common term.
I have had a local English speaker use the term "" in
Yogyakarta, but that could have been for my benefit.
If the local 'taxi' is a horse and carriage .. then so be it.
Possibly the kind of taxi needs to be indicated? As noted on
the wiki for taxi people are already trying to tag this.
taxi_vehicle=car/motorbike/tuk_tuk/* may be a way forward??
This keeps the local use with the differences.
