§ 5382 Charter-Party Carrier Rules

Key Takeaways

  • •Rules for regular passenger carriers (like buses) also apply to charter-party carriers (like private vans or limos).
  • •These rules only apply if they don’t conflict with other laws for charter-party carriers.
  • •The commission (a group in charge) can make exceptions or change these rules if needed.

Example

A company runs private vans to take kids to school. Normally, buses have rules like safety checks and driver training.

This law says those same bus rules (like safety checks) also apply to the private vans unless the commission says otherwise.
