A rate Card is a card provided by the NYC Taxi and Limousine Commission that displays the taxi cab’s information. It includes the taxicab license number, rates of fare and other TLC required data.
Only the drivers listed on the rate card can drive the vehicle unless specified and noted by the TLC.
A rate card must be present at all times in the taxi cab showing the serial number of the taximeter. It also must be placed in the frame next to the taxicab driver’s license. The rate card also must be lit up and in the passengers view from the back seat after sunset.
