The real life medallion has been taking a beating. Here is the story from the street: green liveries are going Uber and not only picking up all over town but charging way above lawful price during bad weather.
Uber is all over the radio looking for drivers amd promising at least $5,000 income the first month. Also they offer to help a prospective driver to own a car.

The solution to the shaky medallion is to institute a thirty cent per ride surcharge to subsidize the costs of the new wheelchair accessible taxis for the owners. Green car owner drivers are eligible for a $15000 gift towards the accessible van purchase.
The drivers are taking it on the chin again. Thing is now they can start voting with their feet.
