Public to help pick D.C. cab color

The public will help pick the new color of all of D.C.’s taxis under a new city plan that requires all of the individually owned cabs to look the same.

DC Taxicab Commission Chairman Ron Linton said Wednesday that the city will park four vehicles with different color schemes in front of Union Station starting Nov. 1. Residents will be able to pick their favorite or comment on the color options until Jan. 21, Inauguration Day.
