Rep. Fine’s measure to increase safety of rideshare passengers becomes law<br />
Bill inspired<br />
by incident in<br />
Glenview<br />
Submitted by Laura Fine’s<br />
office<br />
Legislation introduced<br />
by State Rep. Laura Fine<br />
(D-Glenview) designed<br />
to protect people using<br />
rideshare services, such as<br />
Uber or Lyft, was recently<br />
signed into law.<br />
“Getting a ride on Uber<br />
or Lyft takes just a few seconds<br />
and is a convenient<br />
way to get to where you<br />
need to go,” Fine said. “As<br />
these businesses continue<br />
to grow, it is important to<br />
have measures in place that<br />
keep passengers safe. This<br />
new law requires potential<br />
drivers to provide detailed<br />
information in their applications,<br />
which will allow<br />
ridesharing companies to<br />
do more comprehensive<br />
background checks.”<br />
Fine worked closely<br />
with the Village of Glenview<br />
and the rideshare<br />
companies on this legislation.<br />
This legislation<br />
stems from an incident in<br />
the Village of Glenview<br />
with an inebriated rideshare<br />
driver who had a<br />
history of drunk driving,<br />
which a more thorough<br />
background check would<br />
have uncovered.<br />
Fine’s legislation,<br />
House Bill 4416, will now<br />
require drivers to provide<br />
their full legal name, their<br />
social security number<br />
and date of birth in order<br />
to become an authorized<br />
driver.<br />
“This will help ensure<br />
the safety of passengers,”<br />
she said. “The more thorough<br />
background checks<br />
will give riders some<br />
peace of mind when they<br />
get into a rideshare car.”<br />
