Remove references to a license category, the Dispatch Service Provider license, that was previously repealed from TLC’s rules.
Allow FHV bases that have franchise agreements pursuant to New York State law to pay drivers and pass along summonses in accordance with those agreements.
Remove restrictions on medallions to which TLC can pay Taxi Improvement Fund (TIF).
Specify that drivers must take required courses from TLC-authorized driver education providers.
Remove the day 10 deadline for requesting a summary suspension hearing to allow licensees to request a summary suspension hearing at any time during the suspension.
Reflect the recent TLC Education program name changes in the TLC Rules.
Reduce significantly the FHV street hail penalties by deriving them from section 19-507(b) of the New York City Administrative Code, as opposed to 19-506(k) of the New York Administrative Code.
