| Motor Carrier Operations | Do you engage in interstate commerce, meaning your business activities involve the movement of property or passengers from one state to another? | Y | If Yes, entity is "Interstate" FRS to present definition: Interstate commerce is defined as the transport of passengers: Across State lines, even occasionally; From one State to another or to a location in the same State when the vehicle passes through another State; When the vehicle travels between the U.S. and a U.S. territory or possession, or from one place in the U.S. through a foreign country to another place in the U.S.; or From the U.S. to another country. Example: If a trip is prearranged to include a trip outside the State/Country by plane or ship. |
7/30/2024 | |||||||||||||
| Do you provide transportation in exchange for direct or indirect payment or compensation, meaning you are operating for-hire? | Y | If Yes, entity is Authorized for Hire FRS to present definitions for this question: "direct or indirect compensation" and "interstate commerce" Direct compensation means payment made to the motor carrier by the passengers or the individual acting on behalf of the passengers for the transportation services provided, and not included in a total package charge or other assessment for highway transportation services. Indirect compensation refers to the other types of compensation aside from direct payment for services, such as a gift, gas money or a donation. Unless subject to an exemption, any time a passenger carrier receives compensation for transporting passengers, it is considered for-hire, no matter how small or light the vehicles used. A not-for-profit organization can be a for-hire passenger carrier if the organization receives compensation. If a trip includes both private passengers and passengers providing compensation, it is a for-hire trip. |
7/30/2024 | ||||||||||||||
| Do you provide private transportation of passengers, not for the general public -- and -- do not receive direct or indirect compensation? (Yes/No) | Y | If Yes, entity would be Private, but FRS must have them select between Private (Business) and Private (Non-Business). FRS to present Definitons of both: Private Motor Carrier of Passengers (PMCP). Note: An entity can be both Private and For-Hire. Deffinitions to add: Business PMCPs provide private, interstate transportation of passengers in the furtherance of a commercial enterprise. For PMCPs to be subject, the vehicle must be designed or used to transport more than 15 passengers, including the driver, unless the vehicle otherwise meets the definition of a commercial motor vehicle in 49 CFR §390.5. Examples of Business PMCPs include companies that use buses to transport their own employees, and entertainers who use their buses for transportation to a show or performance location. Commercial businesses that provide transportation services for the general public for compensation are for-hire operations and are not Business PMCPs. Non-Business PMCPs provide private, interstate transportation of passengers that is not in the furtherance of a commercial purpose. Examples of Non-Business PMCPs include churches, scout groups, and other charitable organizations that own or lease buses for the private transportation of their respective group. Churches, charities, or private associations that offer passenger transportation services to the general public for compensation are for-hire operations and are not Non-Business PMCPs. A not-for-profit organization can be a for-hire passenger carrier if the organization receives compensation. If a trip includes both private passengers and passengers providing compensation, it is a for-hire trip. |
