Getting around by bike in NYC just got safer, especially for those riding in a pedicab. As of 12:01 AM last night (Saturday morning), new regulations went into effect that require all operators of pedicabs to have a registration plate in NYC. According to the New York Times article, Regulated, Inspected and Licensed, by Michael Grynbaum, the latest numbers tally 844 licensed individual pedicabs from 150 different businesses.
