Mayor to Taxicabs: April Fool!

 

D.C. Taxicabs must install meters by April 1, according to the Washington Post.

D.C. Mayor Fenty and the Chairman of the Taxi Commission made the announcement but the news hasn’t made its way to the award-winning DC Government website yet. This follows on the heels of the hollow Halloween Taxi Strike.

You can expect cab drivers to take their opposition to their elected representatives – Virginia and Maryland congressmen. 80 percent of D.C. cab drivers do not live in the District.
