Letter: Cabs are scarce in Richmond

Dear Editor, I’m not sure why a few of the legion patrons, including myself, a senior citizen, were left stranded on Halloween night. We had called for a taxi cab a few hours ahead and none came.

Dear Editor,

I’m not sure why a few of the legion patrons, including myself, a senior citizen, were left stranded on Halloween night.

We had called for a taxi cab a few hours ahead and none came.

Plus, we did not receive a call back stating that they were too busy or there weren’t enough cabs.

This is not the first time I have been left stranded in the evening without taxi service. I also realized that my many rides in the Steveston area are short trips for the cabs, which they avoid as much as possible.

My concern is when will this change? It is not acceptable to live in a thriving city that does not protect us and give us proper cab service.
