Re: Taxi driver lease
The shot answer is "No." The city of Chicago requires that all cabs be insured for a minimum amount. The driver who leases the cab usually pays the owner a a fee in order to be covered by the insurance policy. I have had many cabbies as customers and/or have had claims against cab companies and in all my years of litigation, I have never come across a cab company and/or driver who was not insured.
I hope this helps--If you need additional assistance, feel free to contact me.
