Taxicabs are equipped with a taximeter, and the passenger controls the route and destination.&nbsp;Taxicab chauffeurs must have a chauffeur's registration issued by Miami-Dade County and must be properly displayed inside the vehicle.</p> <p>Taxicabs must be affiliated with a Passenger Service Company that is licensed by the DTPW.&nbsp; The Passenger Service Company&rsquo;s logo and telephone number, as well as the taxicab&rsquo;s vehicle number, are located on the taxicab.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> noFee

Where the "SunPass Only" or "SunPass Express" toll is not fixed, the chauffeur shall determine whether the passenger desires to use the "SunPass Only" or "SunPass Express" lane and comply with the wishes of the passenger.</li> <li>There is no additional charge for wheelchair transportation, service animal, baggage charge, infant/toddler car seats, or per passenger/additional passengers.</li> </ul>
          Custom Rates <p>On July 19, 2022, the Board of County Commissioners adopted <a href="https://www.miamidade.gov/govaction/matter.asp?matter=221434&amp;file=true&amp;fileAnalysis=false&amp;yearFolder=Y2022" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Resolution R-700-22</a> revising the established maximum taxicab rates.
