Section 39

SEC. 39. Trip card.—Every operator of a motor vehicle carrying passengers for hire, shall at all times when on the Public highways, carry a "Motor Vehicle Trip Card" to be furnished by the owner and having headings, blank columns and spaces to be prescribed by the Director of Public Works, on which the owner shall enter or cause to be entered by the operator or other agent, a correct, indelible and legible record of the trip on which the motor vehicle is being used or operated, including the registration number, names of operator and owner, date and time of leaving garage or place of business, destination, number of passengers, and such other information as may be required by the Director of Public Works. In the case of Public Service motor vehicles, the records required by the Public Service Commission may, in the discretion of the Director of Public Works, be accepted in lieu of the requirements of this and the next succeeding section. Persistent laxity or carelessness in keeping those records; repeated apprehensions of the vehicle in localities out of line with the time and destination noted; or dissimilarity between the garage record and the trip card, shall be considered evidence of violation of this section.
