Change provisions relating to certain motor carriers
This bill requires motor carriers (including ride-sharing services) that transport railroad employees within Nebraska for work to obtain a $250 annual license from the state commission. It applies specifically to companies moving railroad workers between their homes and workplaces inside Nebraska, not to general passenger transport. Licensees must comply with existing safety rules on driver qualifications, vehicle standards, and recordkeeping but cannot have their transportation rates regulated by the commission. The bill repeals the previous licensing requirement for this service and adds new application procedures.
