This bill amends sections 75-305 and 75-328 of the Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska, specifically addressing the regulations surrounding transportation network companies (TNCs). It introduces a new structure for annual fees that TNCs must pay, allowing them to choose between an annual flat fee not exceeding $25,000 or an annual per-vehicle fee not exceeding $80 for each personal vehicle operated by a driver. The commission is tasked with establishing the amount of these annual fees, ensuring that the total collected does not exceed what is necessary for the administration and enforcement of relevant laws.

Additionally, the bill modifies the requirements for personal vehicles used by TNCs. It removes the detailed list of components that must be inspected for compliance with the Motor Vehicle Registration Act, streamlining the process. The previous requirement for an initial safety inspection by a transportation network company or a certified mechanic is also deleted, along with the annual inspection requirement for drivers to maintain proof of current inspections. The original sections 75-305 and 75-328 are repealed, indicating a significant overhaul of the regulatory framework for TNCs in Nebraska.
