The Recorder Interviews BB&K Attorney Jordan Ferguson on CPUC Changes

Under a package of California Public Utilities Commission reforms in the works, ridesharing services regulation will shift to the Department of Motor of Vehicles. In an interview with The Recorder, Best Best & Krieger LLP attorney Jordan Ferguson said the DMV makes sense as the regulatory agency of transportation network companies like Uber and Lyft. This is because the DMV is already focusing on future technologies and innovations, like driverless cars, Jordan said.

“The DMV is going to be better equipped at handling TNCs going down the line,” Jordan told The Recorder. “They’re thinking about these issues at a much more nuanced level than the PUC has.”
