Title

An ordinance relating to public passenger vehicle trip records.

Sections

100-59-13                     rc

Analysis

Currently, a public passenger vehicle driver is required to maintain daily trip sheets which show the time, date and place each passenger was picked up and discharged.  The permittee is also required to retain the trip sheets for at least 6 months.

 

Under this ordinance, drivers are required to maintain daily trip records which contain the same type of information currently contained on the trip sheets.  In effect, this ordinance allows the trip information to be kept in a different format.  The trip records will also be retained for at least 6 months.

Body

The Mayor and Common Council of the City of Milwaukee do ordain as follows:

Part 1.  Section 100-59-13 of the code is repealed and recreated to read:

100-59.  Operating Regulations for all Public Passenger Vehicles.

13.  TRIP RECORDS.  Every driver shall maintain daily trip records, approved by the police department as to format, which shall show the time, date and place each passenger was picked up and the time, date and place each passenger was discharged.  Each daily record shall contain the driver’s name and vehicle permit number.  The permittee shall retain trip records for at least 6 months, and the records shall be readily available for inspection upon request by the police department.
