Taxis: did rise. That is: rises with any significant rise in fuel prices. Metro Buses (city-run mass transit): typically much slower to change cost to consumer since these are typically run by a city or some other government department. Typically the government is willing to subsidize the increased cost of fuel for a temporary period. If the increased cost continues then fares will (eventually) be raised to cover the cost.

Not just taxi's either everything is transported by fuel. Our city busses run on natural gas and just for added info, my case manager drives me to my appointments in a hybrid. Fuel paid for by the government. Thank you fine tax paying citizens for taking care of me since I got sick.

Amtrak operates diesel, electric, and dual-mode (diesel or electric) locomotives. But if your electric comes from burning oil/gas you're really just running in circles. -

I think Greyhound has their own reserve. -
