The Ramapo Police Department reported an unusual but telling incident as part of its ongoing enforcement against unlicensed and suspended drivers. According to police, an 18-year-old male drove a taxicab to a Walmart parking lot before walking through the police station lot to appear at Town Justice Court regarding a prior unlicensed operation ticket. While he arrived “by taxi,” authorities say he failed to disclose that he had been the one driving the vehicle.
A short time later, officers stopped the individual again and issued an additional ticket for unlicensed operation. Police noted that the incident underscores a recurring issue they have been actively targeting through increased traffic enforcement efforts.
You all are just picking on him cause he’s an illegal Mexican
I spoke with the manager of GoCab. The driver involved is not personally enrolled with the company; he was operating his father’s vehicle. The registered driver has been suspended due to allowing an unauthorized individual to operate a marked taxi.
