The Taxi Regulation Program (TRP) coordinates local enforcement of taxicab regulations established by the State of California in Government Code Section 53075.5. Having a single, consistent source of standards, requirements and permitting contributes to a safer taxi travel experience for residents and visitors.
- Safe Drivers
All TRP-permitted taxicab drivers undergo a criminal background check and are enrolled in a monitoring program. Each driver is drug and alcohol screened prior to receiving or renewing a permit.
- Safe Vehicles
All TRP-permitted taxis are inspected by a Bureau of Auto Repair-certified garage and certified annually. Taxi meters are annually tested by County of Marin Weights and Measures section for accuracy.
- Safe Companies
All TRP-permitted taxi companies are subject to regulations and service standards to promote professional, fair and non-discriminatory customer service. They provide commercial liability insurance to cover passengers in the event of an accident.
