The Passenger Charter-party Carriers Act provides for the regulation of charter-party carriers of passengers by the Public Utilities Commission and includes specific requirements for liability insurance coverage for transportation network companies, which are defined as certain organizations that, using an online-enabled application or platform, connect passengers with drivers using a personal vehicle.
This bill would define a personal vehicle as a vehicle that is used by a participating driver to provide prearranged transportation services for compensation, with a passenger capacity of eight persons or less, including the driver, that is owned, leased, rented for a term that does not exceed 30 days, as specified, or otherwise authorized for use by the participating driver, meets all inspection and other safety requirements imposed by the commission, and is not a taxicab or a limousine.
