Most NYC Yellow Cab drivers do not own the medallion. They lease it weekly, or yearly, or work for a garage who owns the medallions. Over the past few years a lot of these garages have been consolidated into larger corporations. This is about motivating and celebrating the driver. Much like in professional sports the MVP is not the owner of the team. We do not intend to further malice and negativity within the city. We are looking to create a positive and mutually beneficial relationship between the over 45,000 drivers and 470,000+ people who take cabs on a daily basis.
