Ohio HB604 modifies laws related to transportation network companies, including driver authorization and liability.

Ohio HB604 amends the state's Revised Code to modify regulations for transportation network companies. It mandates that these companies conduct background checks and review driving histories for prospective drivers. Companies must terminate driver authorization if the driver has been convicted of certain offenses, such as operating a vehicle under the influence or committing a felony while driving. The bill also exempts these companies from certain vehicle registration requirements and clarifies that they are not liable for driver-caused harm if they have fulfilled their legal obligations.
