§ 16-287. Records to be kept; information to be shown.
Latest version.
Each licensee under the provisions of this article shall keep a complete set of records
in duplicate showing a list of each person who shall apply to him as the owner or
operator of a vehicle desiring to secure persons to travel from one point to another
with such owner or operator of such vehicle on an expense-sharing basis, and showing
the name of every person making application and the date and hour of the application
to such licensee desiring to be put into communication with the owner or operator
of a vehicle for the purpose of arranging to travel from one place to another with
the owner or operator of such vehicle on an expense-sharing basis. The records shall
show the name and address of each such person and if such person is offering to transport
persons from one point to another upon an expense-sharing basis, then such records
shall show fully the make, year, model, license number, motor number and ownership
of any automobile or vehicle proposed to be used in that connection, and shall show
fully any remuneration, commission or compensation paid to the licensee hereunder,
by whom paid and for what service such remuneration was paid, shall show the point
where such travel is to originate and the point where it is to terminate, and shall
show, if the licensee is in possession of the information, the charge made for the
transportation of the amount of expense borne by each party thereto. The records shall
further show clearly the name of each person which the licensee may bring together
with any other person for the purpose of contracting to travel on an expense-sharing
basis and the date and hour when such persons were brought together. The record shall
also show the name of the person making the record. Each transaction described hereinabove
shall constitute a separate transaction. The failure on the part of any licensee to
keep the required records of each transaction shall constitute a separate offense.
Such records shall at all reasonable times during business hours be subject to inspection
by the tax collector and his duly authorized agents.
