Edward F. Kearney, Washington, D.C., for petitioners.

Charlotte M. Brookins, Asst. Corp. Counsel, with whom Frederick D. Cooke, Jr., Corp. Counsel, and Charles L. Reischel, Washington, D.C., Deputy Corp. Counsel, were on the brief, for respondent.

Before NEWMAN, TERRY, and SCHWELB, Associate Judges.

SCHWELB, Associate Judge:

The District of Columbia Taxicab Commission (DCTC) found that each of the petitioners had operated a taxicab in the District of Columbia without a hacker's license, in violation of D.C.Code § 40-1719(a) (1986 Repl.), and imposed civil fines. Petitioners contend that the offenses should have been brought before the Bureau of Traffic Adjudication (BTA), and that the DCTC was without jurisdiction. We affirm.
