Ensuring Your Safety on the Road

The limousine industry is one of the most highly regulated businesses in the U.S. We operate under strict requirements on both the state and federal levels.

For transportation within the state of Maryland, the Maryland Public Service Commission (PSC) requires the following of all limousine operators:

• In addition to a regular driver’s license, chauffeurs have to have a separate license (“Passenger For-Hire”), issued through PSC, which requires them to undergo a criminal background check and present an acceptable driving record;
• Vehicles have to be inspected twice a year;
• The company has to carry $250,000 in liability insurance.

In addition,

• Drivers have to present an acceptable driving record annually;
• Drivers must maintain a current medical card;
• Drivers have to follow the “Hours of Service” rules to track how many hours they are on duty and driving;
• For 1-15 passengers (including the driver), companies must carry 1.5 million dollars liability insurance; 16 passengers or more, must be 5 million dollars in liability insurance;
• CDL drivers have to be drug and alcohol tested prior to hiring, then randomly.
