5.136.190   Transportation of passengers.
   No taxicab driver shall do the following:
   A.   Refuse a reasonable request for transportation service from any legitimate customer, regardless of the short length of the prospective ride. Service may be refused when, in the reasonable opinion of the driver, accepting a passenger would threaten the safety of the driver;

   C.   Transport a greater number of passengers than the vehicle is designed to carry;
   D.   Pick up additional passengers without the prior consent of the passengers already in the taxicab;
   E.   Fail to take the most direct route possible that will carry passengers safely, lawfully, and expeditiously to their desired destination, without the prior consent of the passengers;
   F.   Refuse to drive to a destination different from the destination that was originally stated; or
   G.   Refuse to allow a passenger to disembark at a location different from the destination that was originally stated. (Ord. 2010-028 § 2)
