A few minutes after I got on the taxi, the driver got lost. vs A few minutes after I got in the taxi, the driver got lost.

Both phrases are correct, but they are used in slightly different contexts. 'Got on the taxi' implies entering the taxi, while 'got in the taxi' also means entering but is more commonly used. Both convey the same meaning, so the choice between them depends on personal preference.
