In New York City, a significant number of taxi drivers have gone on a 48-hour strike to protest (in part) mandated GPS in their cabs (the NYC Taxi & Limousine Commission will track and log vehicle activity).
Aside from the backlash itself being noteworthy, most AVL-type systems that I’m aware of track organizations’ own vehicles/assets. The TLC is the agency responsible for licensing and regulating, which makes this scenario a bit different, does it not?


Very good article. I’ve found your blog via Bing and I’m really happy about the information you provide in your posts. Btw your sites layout is really broken on the Kmelon browser. Would be cool if you could fix that. Anyhow keep up the great work!
