Under current law, certain persons who transport passengers or property by motor vehicle on highways (motor carriers) are subject to certain regulations, including licensure and insurance requirements. Current law defines one type of motor carrier, a "private motor carrier," as "any person except a common or contract motor carrier engaged in the transportation of property by motor vehicle other than an automobile or trailer used therewith, upon the public highways." Under this bill, a "private motor carrier" is defined to mean "any person who provides transportation of property or passengers by commercial motor vehicle and is not a contract motor carrier."
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
