That's not clearly the point. It may be inferred but it's hardly clear. The 1k license seems a bit excessive but some of the other points, registering, abiding by current mileage standards, having insurance...all seem completely valid and like places Lyft and Uber are taking advantage of missing regulation and, to some extent, rider's ignorance of the situation they are in if there's an accident or some other mishap.
