Comment on Lost and Found by Ravneet Popli

I dropped my cell phone in the taxi. The cab id on my bill is 465. I also called the customer care and they said that no taxi exists with this id. Some other ids on my bill are – D-ID # 14376 and TRIP #21526.

I boarded the taxi from Tremont St and my destination was 194 Hillside st. Can you please try and locate my phone? I have been calling on my cell but it looks like it has been switched off.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Comment on Hybrid Boston Taxi by Charlie

suppose there was a hybrid retrofit option that could be added to the crown vic that would save you 25% of your gas bill, and it cost $10k installed. Would that be interesting to boston cabbies and owners? suppose further that the savings per shift amounted to $6.50 (25% of the 10 gal gas bill of $26). suppose still further that to help defray the cost of this, a $5/shift premium was added to the shift lease rate. do you think the cabbie/owner could live with this? if gas went to $3 the savings would increase, if it dropped to $2 the driver might be a bit out of pocket. in any case, the vehicle would produce fewer emissions and use less gas, most of which now comes from offshore regimes hostile to us.

From a passenger’s point of view, Boston taxis are disgustingly dirty, dark, uncomfortable, and cost much more than for comparable distances in New York, Chicago, or Los Angeles. I prefer the hybrids (they aren’t exotics — they’re Toyotas and made in the good ol’ USA) because they are far more comfortable. The Ford Crown Victoria’s have the most cramped room of any cab I’ve ever been (thanks to the divider and really cheap upholstered seats, yet are huge monster boats on the road. Also, Boston cab drivers float across lanes, block pedestrian crosswalks (they don’t understand the dimension of their car and that they stop line is behind their front axle??), don’t use turning signals, are on their cell phones (even texting) while driving, and generally have bad manners. Disgusting place to take a cab.

I do feel for the cab drivers, though: they should not bear the costs. The city should incentivize the hybrids with tax breaks as it benefits the city as a whole. Or better yet: make it competitive and invite new entrants into the market to benefit the consumers. You cab drivers and companies have an unfair lock on the passenger. Oh yeah, I’m also tired of the “honking” by cab drivers in Boston — get a clue and use the roof light like the rest of the world to signal availability!! Unbelievable.

Thank you,

To whom it may concern- I don’t recall the exact company I used but my credit card statement says Boston Taxi 1051 so I was wondering if you found a set of keys on a brown key case in your cab saturday night. Please let me know asap!

Hello, tonight (9/26) I took one of your cab’s home from Mass General Hospital after work with a coworker. I got in the cab just after 11pm. I took the cab to Westland and Mass Ave. I left my phone in the cab, and I am hoping to get it back. I had that same coworker call to see how to best go about that, and was given a number for the BPD lost and found. I just wanted to know if there was anything else I should do to get back my phone.

Hi there

I work for an international, award winning TV production company that makes
shows for the BBC, ABC, Discovery and National Geographic – amongst other
networks.

I’m currently casting for a documentary about Irish-American culture in the
United States and was eager to reach out the Irish American community in
Boston.

I’m looking to place my casting card in a selective number of destinations in
Boston and came across your website online. I was wondering if it was at all
possible to place my poster (I can send upon request) on your website or within your premises?

I look forward to your thoughts.

Best wishes,

Alice
