S-6.01, r. 3 - Taxi Transportation Regulation

Section 46 Disposition versions

2012-09-01

46. Notwithstanding section 43, a holder of a taxi driver’s permit who does not occupy the first space in a public taxi station must turn down a client who asks for a ride and direct the client to the first taxi in the line-up, unless the client requires a special means of payment - credit card payment in particular - or requires a disabled accessible vehicle or a special accessory such as a luggage rack.

By the same token, a holder of a taxi driver’s permit who is waiting at a public taxi station must turn down a trip his or her taxi transportation service intermediary calls in if a taxi with the same intermediary is ahead of him or her at the station, unless the intermediary is calling the holder as a result of a special request from a client with regard to a means of payment other than cash, a driver’s special qualifications, the taxi’s wheelbase or accessibility, or a special accessory or equipment.
