The bill also addresses requirements for background checks, insurance and other safety concerns involving drivers.

"The passage of a permanent framework for ride-sharing increases modern transportation options and economic opportunity across the state. It also ensures Philadelphia’s children and their public schools will benefit from additional funding generated from ride-sharing revenue," Sami Naim, Lyft's public policy manager, told Mashablein an emailed statement. "We thank Governor Wolf, as well supporters in the Pennsylvania state legislature, for passing this critical legislation. And we applaud the thousands of members of the Lyft community in Pennsylvania who made their voices heard and helped pass these common-sense rules.”

"This bill puts an end to any questions of these companies operating in our Commonwealth," the governor said at the bill signing, according to Philly.com, "and especially answers questions about their operations in Philadelphia."
