Legal taxis ferry illegal immigrants to work in Georgia: A crackdown in Gainesville means driving without a license can lead to deportation, so many use a “taxista” — or simply move away. This is the third part of our occasional series on the New Latino South. Photo: Carlos Santiago, 19, pays Diaz the taxi fare as he arrives at a Gainesville restaurant where he’s a dishwasher and cook. He says the daily $8 round-trip expense is a big bite out of his $8.50-an-hour wages. Credit: Don Bartletti / Los Angeles Times
