Transportation Network Companies - Deactivation of Operators
What changed between versions
The definition of 'Transportation network company' was updated to explicitly include sole proprietorships in addition to corporations and partnerships.
The definition of 'Transportation network operator' was changed to remove the requirement that the operator must receive a connection through a digital network application, and added a requirement that the vehicle be approved by the Commission.
The definition of 'egregious misconduct' was narrowed by removing clauses that counted three or more noncriminal moving violations and three or more at-fault traffic collisions within a three-year period.
The detailed definition of 'Operator advocacy organization' was removed from the bill.
New requirements were added to mandate that deactivation policies must be enforceable as contract terms and must include provisions for withdrawing earnings under certain circumstances.
The bill now repeals and reenacts additional sections of the Public Utilities Article, specifically 10-101(a) and 10-401(a) and (c).
