would they even be able to dispute it? To do so they would have to remember in the moment to get the medalion number and take a note of it. Would the cab company release the drivers name? or even be able to figure out who the driver was if they didn't have the presence of mind to write it down in the heat of the moment?

With Uber it was all logged by the app.
