Each licensed cab company is subject to a background investigation and annual taxi cab safety inspections, and must maintain a proper level of insurance. All taxi cab drivers must hold a valid taxi driver’s permit to operate a taxi in the City. Taxi drivers must demonstrate proficient knowledge of the local streets as well as traffic laws of the City and State.
