(b) Notwithstanding any law to the contrary: (1) The surcharge imposed by this article must be passed along to passengers and separately stated on any receipt that is provided to such passengers. The passing along of such surcharge shall not be construed by any court or administrative body as the imposition of the surcharge on the person or entity that pays for the for-hire transportation trip. All regulatory agencies must adjust any fares that are authorized by them to include the surcharge imposed by this article, and must require that any meter or other instrument used in any for-hire vehicle regulated by it to calculate fares be adjusted to include the surcharge.
(2) Neither the failure of a regulatory agency to adjust fares nor the failure to adjust a meter or other instrument used in a for-hire vehicle to calculate fares shall relieve any person liable for the surcharge imposed by this article from the obligation to pay such surcharge.
