Anchorage Public starting in April 2014 will have safer cabs

Tuesday, December 3rd, 2013 Ten smart members of the Anchorage Assembly voted to approve Ordinance 2013-109.  Customers will no longer be allowed to sit in the front seat even at the drivers request.  Dispatch companies will have to have to make all their files available to the transportation inspector.  Handicapped, Eagle River and Chugiak customers will have to served in a timely manner.  Drivers will no longer get to choose their trips and dispatch companies must dispatch all trips except for the airport.  The trip will go to the closest cab available not who in the zone first.  This will make sure the closest cab always get the closest trip.
