This is a photo I took recently enough. What I like about is how your eyes get drawn to the yellow taxi. Despite being quite a busy with all the lines and leaves there is a certain kind of calmness in the shot. What could make this shot better for me is if there was just a little bit more going on around the taxi maybe someone getting in or out. I’d be curious to here your thoughts.

I actually wish there was less going on around the taxi - a lot of the texture and busy-ness comes from the buildings and trees above ground-level in the scene and I think it would be more effective at communicating the calmness you want from the shot.
Other than that, I think the taxi’s unfortunately too bright. I’d try bringing down the luminance of yellows in post, increasing saturation, and shifting ever so slightly toward orange to see if it’ll jump out more. As-is right now the blue truck behind it is more eye-catching to me because it’s a nice midtone in a sea of near-blown-out highlights on the buildings and near-black leaves on the trees.
