New York cabbies aren’t pleased with the proliferation of taxi tops pimping strip clubs. One cabbie, Mohan Singh told the New York Post, “My children ask me, ‘What is this? I want to go to a gentlemen’s club? What should I answer?”

Currently, taxi medallion owners decide what does and doesn’t get placed atop their cabs. Cab owners have no say. But TLC Commissioner David Yassky has said he’s willing to allow drivers who own their own taxis have the final say. A final decision will me made in September when it meets.
