  • No person operating a motor vehicle described in this chapter, nor their agents, servants or employees, shall solicit the patronage of any person at the terminus of any public utility engaged in the transportation of passengers under a franchise or an indeterminate permit issued by the city; nor shall they solicit the patronage of any person at intermediate points along any established route of such public utility, which persons are not at such terminus or along such routes for the purpose of using the services of such public utility. This provision shall not prohibit or interfere with the response to any call for a public vehicle made by telephone or by signal from a pedestrian without such solicitations; provided, however, that this section shall not apply to solicitations at railroad or bus stations, depots, ferry landings or steamship landings.
