sure, if you don't equate commercial transport license to "Taxi medallion more costly than the car itself".
Which is fairly common.
and really, the places where it's like that is where the taxis are lobbying for banning uber. it would be rather easy to check out available uber taxis and check if they have license or not and smack them with the appropriate fines if not. but if you want to protect your roaming or taxi pole mafia, then you need to ban the whole concept.
