That's one dangerous job in a dangerous city.

When socialist policies have just about destroyed a city or a state, the government then does little but attempt to keep competition out so as to protect its remaining cash cows. It never works.

Limousine operators in Detroit have it easier since they do not need to purchase a bond plate, but the city of Detroit has still attempted to enforce the bond plate requirement "whenever luxury cards pick up fares within the city limits." What's more, the driver of a limousine or other luxury vehicle is prohibited from parking or standing within 300 feet of any hotel, motel, theater, hall, public resort, bus station, railway station, airport, restaurant or other place of public gathering.

Oh I bet this is a real rub. Their is a fleet of painted black Limos, many are CNG and they used to be given early production runs and sale-able Protos to beat the snaught out of them for feedback for the Big-3.

If they can't tax them in "Detwaa" that must really, rub them raw as well as who might be the management...

One factor they left out of the equation: how likely is a driver to be fare-beaten, robbed or killed on any given trip? It is Detroit, after all!
