Yes. If you often take taxis I really recommend buying a travel system, because then you can put the baby in the capsule, throw the wheels in the boot of the taxi, then click them together when you get out. You might find one in the classifieds. I didn't have this with my first baby, and really regretted it. With no. 2 we bought a quinny zapp cheaply on ebay which we could use with the maxi cosi capsule we already had. What a difference it made to my life! Still have never used the actual stroller of the quinny as I love our original stroller, but because we bought it second hand it didn't matter. If you put the baby in a sling, be sure to put the seatbelt between you and the baby, as if the belt is in front of you both and there is an accident you could crush the baby.
