Safer Limos: New Rules for Passenger Transport Vehicles

This act aims to enhance the safety of passengers using transport services like limousines and other group vehicles. It modifies the definition of a commercial motor vehicle, meaning more drivers will need a special license. Additionally, it mandates the completion of regulations concerning vehicle inspections for passenger carriers, ensuring better maintenance.
Key points
More vehicles, including limousines carrying 9 or more people (including the driver), will require the driver to hold a special commercial driver's license, aiming to increase safety.
The government has two years to finalize new rules for mandatory technical inspections of passenger transport vehicles, which should improve their condition and reduce accident risks.
