Pl 664 Form PDF Details

The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) mandates that transportation companies operating passenger vehicles for hire, compensation, or profit adhere to specific regulatory requirements, one of which includes the completion and submission of the PL-664 form, officially known as the Passenger Carrier Equipment Statement. This form plays a pivotal role in ensuring that commercial vehicles, ranging from limousines and buses to autonomous vehicles, are registered correctly under commercial or limousine classifications and meet all necessary safety and operational standards set forth by the state. It requires detailed information about each vehicle, including the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), modifications such as chassis stretching, wheelchair accessibility, the presence of safety equipment like fire extinguishers and emergency exits, as well as the vehicle's terminal location. Moreover, it distinguishes between new applications, renewals, and updates to existing fleet information, thereby streamlining the process for both the CPUC and the carrier. With sections devoted to carrier information, equipment specifics, and a certification by the carrier that all information provided is accurate and that all vehicles are insured in compliance with state-required minimums, the form serves as a comprehensive tool for regulatory compliance and operational transparency in the passenger transportation industry.

OTHER INFORM ATION 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.

Vehicle Registration:

Before the License Section will process your request to add a vehicle, you must provide us with a copy of the vehicle’s registration, which must show that the vehicle is registered “commercial” or “limousine”. In addition, the registration must show the registered owner or lessee to be the following and as listed on the Statement of Information (SOI) if your entity is a Corporation or LLC:
