shall remain in such recording position at all times during the transportation of
passengers and at a nonrecording position at the termination of each trip. It shall
be unlawful for a driver to fail, refuse or neglect to put the taximeter in operation
when such vehicle is employed and to keep the device in a recording position at all
times during such employment.
