§ 37-53. Computation of fares.  


Latest version.
  • Unless a holder's approved rates of fare or operating authority provide otherwise, a holder shall equip each taxicab with a taximeter, and a driver shall charge only a fee as computed by the taximeter. However, a holder may authorize a driver to make a flat rate charge for a trip to a destination which is not covered in the holder's approved rates of fare, if the taximeter is kept in operation while the taxicab has a passenger within the scope of the area designated in the approved rates of fare.
