For-hire vehicles, such as taxis, may operate with a for-hire vehicle meter (taximeter) and may be required to have a regulatory agency assigned medallion to accept passenger fares. The meter may determine if it is connected with its assigned medallion and may shut down if it is not connected to the proper medallion. In some embodiments, medallions may place conditions on the operation of the for-hire vehicle including, for example, time and location of passenger pick-up restrictions. Before engaging a passenger fare, the meter may check the conditions associated with the medallion and may not engage if the conditions are not satisfied. A central server may track the meters that have become disconnected from their medallions, or it may track the medallions that are not connected to a meter.

A computer system storing parameters pertaining to the regulatory restrictions placed on a for-hire vehicle compares the parameters to a current operating environment of the for-hire vehicle. In some embodiments, the computer system acts as the meter (such as a taximeter) of the for-hire vehicle. The operating parameters may include expiration or exclusion parameters that define the scope of operation of the for-hire vehicle stemming from the for-hire vehicle's medallion or certificate of public convenience and necessity. The expiration or exclusion parameters may also correspond to a driver's permit or any general regulation enacted by the regulatory agency. If the current operating environment does not comply with the expiration or exclusion parameters, the computer system shuts down, or enters a standby mode, and may not accept additional passenger fares until the current operating environment complies with the expiration and exclusion parameters.

A dynamic display system on a for-hire vehicle (FHV) is provided, the display system being configured to change displayed information when it is safe and when other conditions are met. The FHV display system can determine it is safe when the FHV is in a defined location or meets other criteria that reduce a probability of violating a law or of other drivers allowing themselves to become distracted by the display change. The FHV display system can be configured to process information about the FHV, including its position and its speed to determine whether safety conditions are met. The FHV display system can include a notification system configured to alert the FHV operator that a display change is requested and to indicate proposed transition locations near the position of the FHV.
