Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.

New rules for DC ride-hail drivers

In DC, private ride drivers must be licensed, insured, and show required markings (trade dress). They must register with a company that is registered to operate in DC. They can only accept trips through that company’s app or digital dispatch. These rules improve insurance coverage and make trips traceable for riders and drivers.

Stronger DC enforcement on private ride services

The DC Department of For-Hire Vehicles can enforce registration, insurance, and vehicle-marking rules for private ride services. The law clarifies DFHV’s authority to act against unregistered or uninsured operators. This protects riders and drivers and supports fair, legal service. The resolution takes effect immediately.
