Section 20.90.01.14 - Multiple Parties and Destinations

A. Taxicabs may be used to serve jointly from railroad stations or other public places of special assembly passengers or parties who are bound for the same, or approximately the same location, provided that a passenger or party who has engaged a taxicab may not be compelled to share the vehicle with others, if unwilling to do so.

C. Solicitation of others while enroute to the destination of passengers or parties initially occupying the taxicab is prohibited.
