Boulder announced new pedal-cab licensing requirements September 29, with an October 3 effective date. Both businesses operating pedal-cab services and the people driving them needed the appropriate license.
The city’s checklist included a minimum age of 18, a valid Colorado driver’s license, insurance and fees. Drivers also had to authorize a Colorado Bureau of Investigation background report, supply a motor-vehicle history and appear on an agency license.
Licensed agencies had continuing duties to maintain insurance and report driver changes. Agency licenses expire March 1 each year. The city also said operators could not sell, serve or give away products—including food, water or alcohol—while performing pedal-cab activities.
