Meet the new boss — same as the old boss?

Mayor de Blasio’s pick to head the city’s Taxi and Limousine Commission — a former deputy of recently-departed chair Meera Joshi — vowed on Thursday to be a “transformative” force at the agency, but offered little in terms of detail.

Testifying before the city council at his confirmation hearing, Jeffrey Roth repeatedly deflected questions about his vision for the agency, frustrating council members including Speaker Corey Johnson.

“We need specifics here today,” Johnson told Roth. “Whoever the next leader of the TLC is is going to affect tens of thousands of lives of drivers and medallion owners.”

Roth served as the TLC’s deputy commissioner from 2014 to 2016. He told council members his work did not overlap with part of the agency that oversees the high-priced medallion sales that have since bankrupted thousands of drivers as the city raked in $850 million.

Yet over the course of Johnson and others’ questioning, the army vet and current Department of Veterans’ Services deputy commissioner declined to take responsibility for that crisis — providing little details about his vision for the agency.

Roth declined to answer successive questions from Johnson about whether the TLC bears responsibility for the lending crisis, whether the TLC should apologize to drivers for its role. He also didn’t give clear answers about whether the city should bailout bankrupted medallion owners, whether the city should profit over the sales of medallions at all, or whether he supported a package of regulatory changes currently being considered by the council.

Johnson began to lose patience after asking for a fourth time whether the medallion market is “properly regulated.”

“I got three answers three different times,” Johnson told him. “If this is the stance and posture that we’re going to be in before you’re even confirmed… that’s really concerning to me.”

“I agree that there’s a lot of suffering out there,” Roth replied. “There’s a lot of things that the TLC can do better, that the city can do better.”

“But that’s not giving a direct answer to my question,” Johnson scoffed back. “This is awful. We need more specifics here today.”

Roth’s confirmation requires the city council’s approval. A city council spokesperson said a vote has yet to be scheduled.
