AN ACT EXEMPTING NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS THAT PROVIDE TRANSPORTATION FROM CERTAIN MINIMUM INSURANCE OR BOND REQUIREMENTS.

HB 6686 exempts nonprofit organizations operating motor vehicles for livery service (like shuttle services) that transport 15 or more passengers from the $5 million minimum insurance or bond requirement. This change directly affects nonprofits providing group transportation services, such as community shuttles or volunteer driver programs. The bill amends section 14-29 of the general statutes to remove this financial barrier for qualifying nonprofits. It does not create new requirements but simplifies compliance for existing nonprofit transportation providers.
