When do you stop getting in a vehicle and start getting on it?
Eg.
You get in a Taxi but you get on a Bus
You get in a Helicopter but you get on an Aeroplane.

You get on vehicles that you can walk onto.
You also take can say that you took them or that you are going to take them and it means the same thing.
You get in a submarine, but you can walk onto them, but apart from that Stuh that's the better than we've come up with.
And of course, those you mount can only use "on" - bicycles, motorbikes, horses, etc!
