It shall be unlawful for any operator of any taxicab, while carrying passengers, to
display the "flag" or device attached to the taximeter in such a position as to denote
that such service is not employed, or fail to throw the "flag" of the taximeter or
engage a mechanical or electronic device to a position indicating such vehicle is
not employed at the termination of each and every service. All charges for taxicab
service shall be calculated and indicated by a taximeter, and at all times while the
taxicab is engaged, the "flag" and/or mechanical or electronic device of the taximeter
shall be thrown into a position to register charges for mileage, or in a position
to register charges for waiting time. No taximeter shall be used whose mechanism will
register a combined charge for mileage and waiting time in a single position, and
no taximeter shall be so operated as to cause any charge to be registered thereon
except during the time while a passenger, or passengers engage the cab. No such taxicab
shall be equipped with a "dual speed" taximeter or any other device which is set to
compute or register any charges for taxicab service other than the charges prescribed
in this article.
