First, let me state this clearly and for the record: fuck the PPA with a bag of rusty dicks.
But I think you're right. PPA will need to change and that will not come easily. They will react though - but it will very likely be too little too late.
I think the number of cab companies will go down and medallions will drop in value; if i recall NY has already gone through this. Or there will be pressure from cab companies to change the rules.
I think ultimately Lyft and Uber and such can bring about positive change and disrupt shake things up in an industry that has gotten a little too cozy.
interesting bits from the PPA site:
> Recent legislative changes have altered the composition of the Parking Authority’s Board of Directors, with a majority of Board members now appointed by the Governor of Pennsylvania.
and
> In July 2004, the Authority assumed responsibility for the regulation and enforcement of taxi cabs and limousines operating in Philadelphia.
