@AWalker, oh ok.

@FallsChurch, I'm only considering my time here in DC and since then, the fares have gone from 1.10 (yes low) to 3.10. Just seems like a lot.

@Oboe, are you suggesting that a constituency shouldn't expect a return on their investment. I remember those articles from last summer, do we have a final answer on what will/did happen stemming from the Post's initial "investigation?"

That said, I haven't seen enough information here to suggest that Gray is putting the industry's needs over our own. I'm more open to hearing an explanation as to why the double-increase. But as I recall, didn't Fenty and his godfather (who moonlighted as the city's AG) find some sort of law saying that DC could implement a cap on taxi fares?

Your articles only refer to the cap not the proposed fare increase. Re: such, does anyone know if other cities have fare caps? That'll be a good place from which to start our analysis.
