HB 1945 Motor carriers; regulation by DMV.
Introduced by: John A. Cox | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Regulation of motor carriers by DMV; commercial driver’s licenses. Revises statutes relating to motor carriers, including requiring DMV to simply notify localities of the issuance of overweight and oversize permits and eliminating the requirement for for-hire contract passenger carriers and irregular-route common carriers to prove public convenience and necessity when applying for a license. The bill also updates Virginia law on commercial driver’s licenses to comply with federal requirements. This bill is the same as SB 1281.
