OTHER INFORMATION Note the following:
▪ A copy of the current commercial vehicle registration for each equipment must accompany this form. The applicant or
permit holder must be shown on the registration as either the registered owner or the lessee. (In the case of a
partnership, at least one of the general partners whose name is listed on the permit or certificate must appear on the
registration.) Samples of acceptable registration are available via our website:
http://www.cpuc.ca.gov/psg_transportation_forms/
▪ Effective immediately, individuals and one-owner LLC’s and Corporations without employees will be permitted to have
and maintain two (2) vehicles. The term “employee” is defined here as a non-manager-member (LLC) and non-officer
(Corp). Requests to add more than two (2) vehicles must include a reason justifying the additional vehicle, and may
result in the CPUC requiring the filing of an active workers’ compensation insurance policy.
▪ Effective immediately, CHP-issued CA # is required for all carriers who will operate vehicles seating 11 or more
passengers, including the driver, or who will operate modified limousines. Public Utilities Code Section 1042 (d),
“modified limousine” means any vehicle that has been modified, altered, or extended. The CA# must be entered on the
PL664 and the PL739 (new TCP application).
▪ Effective 9/30/14, the Department of Motor Vehicle (DMV) will no longer issue livery plates, therefore, the CPUC License
Section will no longer issue livery letters. You may be issued an Acknowledgement of Vehicle Added notice listing the
limousines you have requested to be added. Please do not take this Acknowledgement of Vehicle Added letter to
DMV.
▪ If there are any changes regarding vehicle license plate numbers, it is your responsibility to immediately submit a
PL-664 reflecting these changes.
