>> my name is mary maguire and i'm a former taxi commissioner. i'd like to echo the statements of former commissioner richard weiner. we served together on the commission and this insurance issue is very serious. i watched the video. i'm flabbergasted by some of the statements that have been made. first of all, no fine like this has ever been levied against anyone? they levied a fine of $600,000 against aaron king simply because he didn't drive his own medallion. he was at yellow cab and driving another medallion. president peterson: $650,000. i believe it may have come here to appeal. bay and regents cab, 60 days, to come into compliance and a $1,000 fine. i remember the director at the time bringing this up to me and oh, she nailed him. nailed bay cab. $1,000 fine for something so serious? it's very strange. i would like to ask who determined this fine. was it she? was it the hearing officer? i would be certain she would have some influence over the hearing officer's fine. about the worker's comp i don't know of any regulation that has a gate s
