Abstract

Certain features and problems are discussed of the taxi industry which has 190.000 vehicles, carries 25% of the Commuter traffic and serves 3400 cities of all sizes. An important feature of the industry is the group riding or DRT service. Contracts have been entered into with schools, and special education schools. Service is provided for welfare recipients and handicapped persons requiring wheelchair service. One of the problems faced by the industry is retention of accumulated revenues.
