Not sure why this matters to me, but DC taxis must officially be painted red & silver over the next few years (as they age out of service or get bodywork). So over the next few years, we'll be phasing in the red & silver cabs
Maybe it's my love for order. Or my sense of aesthetic. But I'm excited that one day, there will be an official DC taxi color. I imagine the red & silver taxis zipping around town, easy to spot, and helping make a more vibrant city.
Vouchers are available for painting work this month, with work to be completed by September 15.
Because I'm a dork, and I'm bored, and I need something to think about while I walk around trying to get 10,000 steps on my Fitbit....I occasionally do an unofficially tally by cab stands or in streets. My totally unscientific estimate is about 1/4 to 1/3 of DC taxis currently sport the red & silver scheme.
