52 Pa. Code § 30.32 - Vehicle operating requirements

A vehicle will not be permitted to operate in citywide call or demand service in cities of the first class unless, prior to the vehicle's operation in citywide call or demand service, the vehicle complies with the following requirements:

(1) The operation of the vehicle in citywide call or demand service in a city of the first class shall be authorized by a current certificate of public convenience issued by the Commission.

(2) The vehicle shall be described in a written communication sent to the Bureau of Transportation, Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, Post Office Box 3265, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17105-3265. The vehicle description shall include the vehicle identification number, medallion number, vehicle make, vehicle model calendar year and Department of Transportation registration number (license plate/tag number).

(3) The vehicle shall have affixed to its hood a current fiscal year medallion issued by the Commission and marked with the medallion number assigned to the corresponding certificate of public convenience under which the vehicle is to be operated. If a vehicle becomes disabled or is retired from service, the medallion holder may, upon verbal notice to the Commission's Philadelphia office to be confirmed in writing, remove the medallion from the vehicle. Upon removal, the medallion shall be immediately delivered to the Commission's Philadelphia office where it will be held until a vehicle is presented for that medallion and successfully passes inspection by the Commission. Immediately before the annual reissuance of a medallion for a vehicle, the prior year's medallion shall, under the supervision of a Commission enforcement officer, be removed from the vehicle hood during a Commission enforcement officer's inspection of the vehicle in accordance with § 30.33(a) (relating to inspection of vehicles).
