I used to take cabs from Penn to Lorimer Street and back all the time through 2007-11 when I didnt feel like switching trains - no problems. I don't want folks

  It was definitely an issue. Not that "every" cab wouldn't, but I learned quickly to get in the cab before saying that I was going to Brooklyn - numerous drivers would drive off when they heard it.

  Doesn't Penn have a taxi-stand that's all nice and managed, like the airports do, with a line of taxis and a line of people lining up to use them? That's probably a contributing factor to you never having a problem; it would be really awkward to enforce that sort of demand on a fare's destination right there, and more likely to get you in trouble. Street hails are a different matter.
