In addition to meeting all requirements of this Section, an accessible taxicab must conform to the Americans with Disabilities Act standards and all other applicable federal, state, and County standards. Prior to operating an accessible taxi cab, an operator must successfully complete a training program approved by the Director and developed in conjunction with the Prince George's Commission on Individuals with Disabilities or their designated representative.

Without limiting the general duty to accept and convey passengers, the driver of an accessible taxicab must respond to a call for service from a person with a disability who uses a wheelchair, scooter, and/or other mobility devices, or individuals who have limited mobility that are located before accepting any other call. Each licensee must dispatch an accessible taxicab to a person with a disability who uses a wheelchair, scooter, and/or other mobility devices, or has limited mobility before assigning the accessible taxicab to any other passenger.

The Director shall develop a plan on increasing the number of accessible taxicabs, with a goal of having 10% accessible taxicabs in the County by 2020, 35% accessible taxicabs in the County by 2025 and 50% accessible taxicabs in the County by 2030. The Director shall report annually to the County Executive and County Council on meeting the goals set forth for accessible taxicabs. The Department shall place a list of accessible taxi cabs with phone numbers on their website.
