Sec. 6-1-12. - Business to be conducted by certificate holder; agreement with drivers.
The business of every horse-drawn carriage for hire shall be carried on by the person to whom the certificate is issued under this chapter. The holder of the certificate may enter into agreements with drivers fixing percentages of receipts to be turned over to the holder of the certificate for the daily use of such carriage paying salaries to drivers, or drivers may rent the horse-drawn carriage for hire for a specific sum of money. A driver may be the conditional vendor or lessor of a carriage as long as the certificate holder is the owner as defined in section 6-1-1. Any arrangement contracted between the holder of a certificate and the driver shall not relieve the holder of the certificate from any liability and damages to third parties. A sample copy of all such agreements shall be kept on file with the city treasurer.
