It 'was unveiled today by Mayor Michael Bloomberg and David S. Yassky of New York City Taxi and Limousine Commission's new color that will distinguish the new taxis in New York: green apple.
"We believe that the apple green color is an attractive and distinctive," the mayor said during the press conference at City Hall, "and also in traffic is more visible from afar."
But what is happening to taxis in New York?

In early April were presented at the International Auto Show in New York the new cab models Nissan NV 200, which will replace the current ones from 2013, and now we talk of green apple as a distinctive color?

That's right, the color will be, but only for "Boro Taxis"Ie those vehicles authorized to circulate in the suburbs, outside of Manhattan. Currently fact the residents in the Bronx, Queens and Brooklyn, if they want to get to Manhattan by taxi or by telephone should call one acchiapparne a volley that is returning to Manhattan. Most of the time instead we rely on unlicensed taxi and the Taxi and Limousine Commission has estimated that more than 100 000 illegal races each day.

To be thus met the needs of New Yorkers who live outside Manhattan but also to solve the problem of illegal, from 29 May 6000 the first licenses will be issued for the movement of new taxis. Other 12,000 will be available in the next 2 years. The Boro Taxis are metered, roof lights, GPS, and will accept payments by credit card just like the other taxis.

The color has already moved some eyebrows. Some people obviously like it, but others have called it dull, sad, useless, and especially if you had to draw an apple, why not red, as the "Big Apple" is red? Furthermore, a critical move for the heavier was the distinction between the two types of cars, the yellow and green, such as that expressed by Sasha Henk: "I do not understand why peripheral taxis should have a different color. I am more than sure that all five districts are part of New York or has something changed? At this point they should call them "Boro Taxi second class". "

And what do you think?
