General Discussion / Response to Commissioner Do's ...

Last post by Citytaxistreets - Nov 06, 2024, 08:41 PM

Dear Commissioner,
A response to your message on New York City taxi accessibility regulations. Harsh regulations that are for yellow needs to be applied to High Volume Service equally. Regulations unequally applied will have a devastating effect, and not directly attributed to the regulation but because the regulation isn't being applied equally to direct competitors. As you say in your message ,   FHv's  have about 8000 wavs but they also number over 100000 vehicles . Thats about 8 percent. Taxis are now required to be 100 percent wav until they reach the 50/50 percent mark.
Uber wavs take longer than uberx to pick up a wheelchair users, look on their app and you can see that pickup times are longer for wav vehicles.  Yellows are at a severe disadvantage with such a difficult requirement snd more so  if it doesn't apply equally to all , the requirement becomes impossible not because of the requirement itself but because it not being applied equally

Thank you and sincerely


An ehail is a streethail

Go to the home page/ scroll down a bit and you will see on the menu, Medallion transfers. Or, call Richard Chipman., his ad is on the top of the page, Westway. Tell him I sent you. He will sell your medallion.

General Discussion / Just a Tap on the Shoulder...

Last post by taxiwerker - Jan 28, 2024, 07:37 AM

  ....A passenger in a NYC taxi leaned over to ask the driver a question and gently tapped him on the shoulder to get his attention. The driver screamed, lost control of the cab, nearly hit a bus, drove up over the curb and stopped just inches from a large plate glass window.
For a few moments everything was silent in the cab. Then, the still shaking driver said, 'Are you OK? I'm so sorry, but you scared the daylights out of me.' The badly shaken passenger apologized to the driver and said, 'I didn't realize that a mere tap on the shoulder would startle you so badly.'
The driver replied, 'No, no, I'm the one who is sorry, it's entirely my fault. Today is my very first day driving a cab. I've been driving a hearse for the past 25 years...
