Taxi Cabs: How's My Driving?
Pedestrians and bikers rejoice, Chicago taxi drivers will have "How's My Driving" bumper stickers on their cars with a number to report bad driving, thanks to a new city project.
The sticker reads “How’s my driving? Compliments or Concerns, Call 311 Report Taxi Number.” It must be placed in a highly visible spot on the rear bumper of each of the city's 6,892 cabs.
“With these stickers, passengers in taxis and pedestrians on the street will be made aware of the opportunity to report both good and poor taxi driving,” said Chicago Department of Transportation Commissioner (CDOT) Gabe Klein. “This is part of the effort to change the behaviors that lead to pedestrian and vehicle crashes.”
The option to dial 311 and file complaints or compliments for a particular cab have always been available, but until now the only place it was publicized was inside cabs or by reaching out to a local official. For those who have filed before, the process is still the same. What's new is the promotion to raise awareness and encourage feedback from those not riding inside the taxi.

AGGRESSIVE DESIGN CUES MATCH ENHANCED DYNAMIC PERFORMANCEThe refreshed Genesis Coupe strikes a more menacing demeanor, with an aggressively redesigned front fascia, grille, headlights, LED daytime running lights, fog lights and hood with heat extractor cues. The side view reveals new, aggressive 18- and 19-inch alloy wheel designs with deeper dimensional sculpting. Finally, the rear taillights provide a visual spark via premium LED illumination and new contours. Of course, the traditional rear-drive sport coupe proportions remain, with a long wheelbase and short front and rear overhangs producing a classic wedge-like profile. Genesis Coupe’s bodyside character line is an innovative “Z”-shaped design that integrates seamlessly with a unique, drop-beltline rear window graphic.
Genesis Coupe’s arching roofline and tapering greenhouse highlight the exterior profile and emphasize the car’s broad shoulders and wide stance. To complete the aggressive sports car look, the depth between the fenders and the greenhouse has been maximized.
