National Limousine Association - TNC Perspective. Their effects on the industry.

The National Limousine Association has released a Position Paper that addresses industry concerns over the proliferation of Transportation Network Companies (TNCs) and their effects on the passenger transportation industry.

The six-page paper, prepared by the NLA’s Executive Board, addresses major concerns that operators have raised regarding the TNCs non-compliance with transportation industry regulatory, legal, safety and insurance requirements, as well as false advertising of facts to the public that utilize TNC for-hire vehicles.

The NLA Board of Directors agreed at its June meeting, held in Washington, DC, to create a Position Paper to address the growing concerns of the business model of TNC companies. Board members were tasked with creating, defining and establishing the paper to address the growing concerns of TNC companies. They also enlisted the assistance of Manesh Rath of Keller & Heckman, NLA’s legal counsel; Louie Perry of Cornerstone Government Affairs, the NLA lobbying firm; and NLA Executive Director Philip Jagiela.

The team provided a draft to the NLA Board for review, suggestions and guidance. Exhaustive efforts were applied by all and after several minor modifications were made, a final draft was adopted.
