Taxi Robber Arrested


I'm passing along a note from Green Cab driver Dave Schneider.




FROM THE SFMTA
We are pleased to announce that an arrest has been made in the recent string of Taxi Cab Robberies.  If you have posted any photos, please take them down. Thank you.

Dave, who belongs to the United Taxicab Workers (UTW), deserves special thanks for waging a lonely battle trying to improve communication on robberies between the police and cab drivers. His efforts have included speaking at innumerable Police Commission hearings and SFMTA Board meetings as well as talking to the policemen in charge and Taxi Services. The fact that photos of robbers are being passed around and posted (although not soon enough by me) is due at least partly to Dave's efforts.

Thanks Dave.
