Bill Summary

AN ACT relating to transportation; requiring transportation network company drivers to have proof of Wyoming motor vehicle registration; and providing for an effective date.

AI Summary

This bill modifies Wyoming state law regarding transportation network company (TNC) drivers, such as those working for ride-sharing services like Uber or Lyft, by requiring them to have proof of Wyoming motor vehicle registration for the vehicle they use to provide prearranged rides. Specifically, the bill amends an existing statute to mandate that before a transportation network company allows an individual to drive, the driver must submit an application that includes a photocopy of a Wyoming motor vehicle registration for the specific vehicle they will use to provide rides. This means that out-of-state vehicle registrations would no longer be acceptable for ride-share drivers operating in Wyoming. The bill is set to become effective on July 1, 2025, giving TNC drivers and companies time to comply with the new registration requirement. The goal appears to be ensuring that ride-share vehicles operating in Wyoming are registered within the state, potentially to enhance local accountability and vehicle tracking.
