Trend: Ride Share Legislation Passes Nevada

Nevada Assembly Bill 175 passed this week to round out a package of ride share legislation. Nevada will now:

  • Allow ride-hailing companies like Uber and Lyft to operate in the state.

  • Ride share will be regulated by  the Nevada Transportation Authority rather than the Public Utilities Commission

  • Legalizes companies that allow people to hail a ride through a smartphone and imposes a 3% fee on taxi and ride share fares.
