Sec. 53-314. Trip records.
   (a)   Each driver, or the fleet or association on behalf of an affiliated individual licensee, must keep a record, for a period of 6 months, of all in-service trips in a form approved by the Department. Each in-service trip must be entered on the trip record at the point of pickup.
   (b)   The driver, or the fleet or association on behalf of an affiliated individual licensee, must submit trip records to the Department whenever the Director requires.
   (c)   Each trip record must include the date, the driver’s starting and ending time, and the taxicab’s starting and ending mileage for the driver’s work day.
   (d)   Each rest break the driver takes must be entered on the trip record. (2004 L.M.C., ch. 27, § 1; 2015 L.M.C., ch. 39, § 1.)
Sec. 53-315. Out of service notice.
   When a taxicab is not operating, the driver must display a notice visible to the public that the taxicab is out of service. This notice must take a form approved by the Director. (2004 L.M.C., ch. 27, § 1; 2015 L.M.C., ch. 39, § 1.)
Sec. 53-316. Parking at taxicab stands.
   (a)   A driver must not park in a taxicab stand unless:
      (1)   the taxicab is in service,
      (2)   the driver is in or within 50 feet of the taxicab, and is awake, and
      (3)   the driver is clearly visible from the taxicab and the area adjacent to it.
   (b)   A person must not park any vehicle other than a taxicab at a taxicab stand. (2004 L.M.C., ch. 27, § 1; 2015 L.M.C., ch. 39, § 1.)

Sec. 53-318. Trips to be made by most direct route.

   (c)   The Police Department must forward any official police report of an accident involving a taxicab licensed under this Chapter to the Department when it is available to any party. (2004 L.M.C., ch. 27, § 1; 2015 L.M.C., ch. 39, § 1; 2024 L.M.C., ch. 20, § 1.)
