YOUR SAFETY AS A
PHILADELPHIA LIMOUSINE PASSENGER:
Philadelphia limousine service is regulated by the City
of Philadelphia; service outside the city is regulated by
the State of Pennsylvania. In order to be licensed
in
Pennsylvania,
a limo company
must
have
a "Certificate of Public Convenience" authorizing intrastate
service. This requires luxury vehicles with proper equipment,
evidence of insurance, and approved tariffs (rates). In the
City of Philadelphia, limousine service carriers must register
with the Philadelphia Parking Authority (PPA) to obtain a
"Certificate of Convenience," must make tariffs (rates) public
(with 60 days notice required for changes) and
offer equal tariffs to all customers, and must provide proof
of insurance and meet annual vehicle inspection requirements.
For general information, also see our list of federally
regulated minimum requirements for limousine operators,
to understand national laws regarding your safety as a limousine
passenger.

YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS
AS A PHILADELPHIA LIMOUSINE PASSENGER:
All Philadelphia limousine companies are required to make
tariffs (rates) public and offer equal rates to
all customers. Prior
to booking with a particular Philadelphia limousine
company
make sure
you
are
clear about
all the charges
involved
in
the service. Some common charges you might see are tolls,
airport fees, regulatory fees, travel time, holiday surcharges,
fuel surcharges, and courtesy cell phone usage charges. All
these charges should be clearly stated up front by the limo
company and should, of course, apply the particular service
you are booking. Being clear on all this information from
the beginning will save you time and trouble, and help you
to avoid companies with hidden fees and confusing extra charges.
