Bill > HB1353

This bill introduces several new regulations for transportation network companies (TNCs), which are ride-sharing services like Uber or Lyft. First, the bill mandates that if a TNC driver is convicted of operating while intoxicated, the Bureau of Motor Vehicles must notify the TNC within 30 days, and the TNC must then suspend that driver's ability to use their digital network for at least 90 days. Additionally, the bill requires TNC drivers to display a placard in their personal vehicle that includes a photograph of the driver and the vehicle's license plate number. When a rider arranges a ride, the TNC must also display these same details on their digital network. Lastly, the bill introduces a new requirement that TNCs provide each rider with a unique identification code that must be shared with the driver to begin the prearranged ride. These provisions aim to enhance rider safety and accountability by providing more transparency about the driver and ensuring stricter consequences for drivers convicted of driving under the influence.
