Section 1. Section 75-327, Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska, is
amended to read:
75-327 (1) A participating driver shall not provide a ride unless it is a
prearranged ride. No person shall be a participating driver for a period of
more than twelve hours during each twenty-four-hour period.
(2)(a) A transportation network company may offer service for
compensation, no charge, or suggested compensation.
(b) Except as provided in this section, transportation network companies
shall not be subject to rate regulation by the commission and shall not be
subject to provisions relating to rates and charges prescribed in sections
75-101 to 75-158.
(c) A transportation network company shall file with the commission the
rates it uses to determine any compensation or suggested compensation on its
online-enabled application or platform, including any use of dynamic pricing.
The transportation network company shall keep the rate filing current and shall
charge rates consistent with the rates it files with the commission.
(d) The following requirements apply if the transportation network company
uses dynamic pricing through its online-enabled application or platform:
(i) The transportation network company's online-enabled application or
platform shall provide clear visible indication that dynamic pricing is in
effect prior to the passenger requesting a ride;

transportation of persons, suppliers, goods, or equipment. The prohibition
shall be confined to the areas delineated in the Governor's emergency
proclamation. The Governor may further regulate dynamic pricing at his or her
discretion during any state of emergency through executive order. Dynamic
pricing shall not be permitted during any state of emergency declared by the
Governor.
