Title 10 Regulation of Activities
Division II. License Code
Chapter 10.34A For-Hire Transportation
Section 10.34A.210 Law Enforcement Investigations
If a for-hire operator is notified by the licensing officer or a law enforcement officer or agency that an affiliated for-hire driver has violated or is violating this chapter, the for-hire operator must immediately investigate the alleged violation. If the for-hire operator finds that the for-hire driver is in violation of this chapter, the for-hire operator must take reasonable and appropriate corrective action.
If the licensing officer or a law enforcement officer notifies the for-hire operator of a specific complaint alleging that any affiliated driver or any passenger may have engaged in criminal conduct during the provision of for-hire transportation services in affiliation with that for-hire operator, the for-hire operator must provide information requested by the licensing officer or a law enforcement officer or agency investigating the complaint. Failure to comply with such a request may be grounds for suspension or revocation of a license issued under this chapter.
For-hire drivers must report arrests, charges, convictions, and collisions with which they are directly involved to the affiliated for-hire operator and to the licensing officer within forty-eight (48) hours of the incident. Delay in reporting, absent good cause, may be grounds for suspending or revoking the for-hire driver’s license.
If a transportation network company determines that a driver has violated the zero tolerance or nondiscrimination policy, the transportation network company must take appropriate action against the driver, which action may include suspending or removing the driver from the TNC’s digital network. Such notice and procedures may be on the TNC’s website.
