*Council Resolution 19-1146
In order to enhance the amount of quality information available, the Department is requiring the reporting of data that is available by dispatch records and from the computerized taxicab meters. The reports can be obtained without breaking the Maryland Department of Agriculture, Department of Weights and Measures inspection meter seal. The fleets and unaffiliated trade groups will be required to submit the reports annually.
THEREFORE, the required taxicab industry reporting requirements are as follows:
(a) All fleets and unaffiliated trade groups must submit reports on operating information annually for all Passenger Vehicle Licenses. Reports must contain data from July 1 through June 30 of each year. Reports are due no later than August 31 each year and must be submitted on forms designated by the Director.
(b) The following information must be reported to the Department of Transportation:
Number of calls received (fleets and unaffiliated trade groups)
Number of cabs in service daily (fleets and unaffiliated trade groups)
Total paid miles driven
Total number of trips
Total revenue excluding extras
Total revenue from extra charges
(c) Reports for call volume and the number of taxicabs in service daily, must be submitted in summary form for fleets or unaffiliated trade groups. Reports for total paid miles driven, total number of trips, total revenue excluding extras, and total revenue from extra charges must be submitted by Passenger Vehicle License number and in summary form by fleet or unaffiliated trade group.
(d) Fleets and unaffiliated trade groups must maintain records and submit reports for all owned and affiliated taxicabs.
(e) Failure to submit the reports by August 31 each year is grounds for suspension or revocation of the Passenger Vehicle License.
(f) Initial reports
1. In order to transition to the annual report cycle, all fleets and unaffiliated trade groups must submit the number of calls received and the number of cabs in service daily for the prior twelve month period. If figures are not available, an estimate of these numbers must be submitted.
2. Additionally, baseline data on the total paid miles driven, total number of trips, total revenue excluding extras, and total revenue from extra charges must be submitted by Passenger Vehicle License number and in summary form by fleet or unaffiliated trade group. This information should be taken from the meters during the first thirty days the regulation is effective. All transition reports will be used as a baseline comparison for the first year operating reports. Transition reports are due no later than sixty days after the regulation is effective.
(g) Drivers must not use taxicab meters unless there is a passenger in the vehicle. Failure to fulfill this requirement is grounds for suspension or revocation of the Taxi Driver Identification Card.
(h) Licensees not complying with this regulation may not renew Passenger Vehicle Licenses. Failure to submit complete reports sixty days after the end of the year’s collection is grounds for suspension or revocation of the License.
