Good enough for Virginia Beach, good enough for D.C.?

There are as many colors of taxicabs as there are actual taxicabs driving around D.C. Unlike many cities across the country, D.C. is one of the few places that has so far opted against a uniform color. That may soon change, though.

As part of a broad taxicab modernization bill passed by the D.C. Council, the D.C. Taxicab Commission has been charged with considering whether all of the city’s 6,500 cabs should be painted the same color. Come November 1, reports the Examiner, four possible options will be put on display outside of Union Station for D.C. residents to view and comment on:

The four color schemes have not yet been selected, but Taxicab Commission spokesman Neville Waters said Mayor Vince Gray’s favorite color scheme—red and gray, similar to the city’s Circulator buses—will likely be one of the choices. He said other colors under consideration include green, black and a red-white-and-blue combination.

Waters said yellow will likely not be a choice, since the color is already associated with New York City taxis and because D.C.’s Yellow Cab Co. could gain an advantage from the citywide repainting.

Comments will remain open until January 21, after which the commission will choose which color it would like to use.
