By "uninsured" I mean insured to operate a passenger vehicle for hire.

I have been involved in the transportation industry for 18 years and have owned no less than 15 limousines, vans and buses. One of the biggest expenses for a legitimate operator is insurance. It has put many operators out of business. Have you ever asked an operator if they have livery insured? I do all time time. You would be surprised how many times the answer is "no."
