About
A luxury limousine is a for-hire vehicle with a seating capacity of twenty passengers or less, excluding the driver, which is dispatched by its base from a central facility, which has certified to the satisfaction of the Commission that more than ninety percent of its for-hire business is on a payment basis other than direct cash payment by a passenger and whose passengers are charged on the basis of garage to garage service and on a flat rate basis or per unit of time or mileage.
Garage to garage service applies to a passenger requesting to have a car for a period of time, rather than a pick-up and drop-off. The passenger will be charged for a time period that begins from the moment the vehicle leaves the garage until the time it returns.
