This July, the new TLC (Taxi & Limousine Commission) Chairman, David Yassky, came to the Laguardia Airport Main Lot in New York City to meet with Taxi Drivers and hear their concerns. This includes the added 50 cent tax on every fare, the fees associated with accepting credit card payments, illegal tips and bribes requested by some garages or brokers, lease overcharges, excessive ticket write-ups, and the use of bus lanes.
Before looking at this video, I must declare my admiration for Desai and her efforts and my contempt for the TLC. Yaskey deserves credit for having the nerve to show up there. If I were in his shoes, I'd have a couple of troopers nearby.
