TLC’s Van Hailin’ pilot program was inspired by Mayor Eric Adams’s
initiative to improve customer service and was created to enhance
customer service for TLC drivers by allowing them to perform a
variety of transactions that would otherwise require them to visit
TLC’s offices in Long Island City. Van Hailin’, which features a built-in
office, will be visiting all five boroughs and is a one-stop-shop mobile
office where staff members from various TLC units can assist licensees.
It is staffed by representatives from TLC’s Licensing, External Affairs,
Finance, and Prosecution Units, and accompanied by LabCorp so
that drivers can submit their annual required drug tests.
