the ptc says the rules they agreed on today will keep you doing that into the future and safely. but the problem is that the two companies are not ready to play by all of the rules that the ptc is pushing and that means that the future here could be up in the air. the hillsborough ptc is hoping it is finally a step closer to ending a drawn out dual with uber and lyft. >> by adopting these today, we are now recognizing a ride- share industry. >> out how the companies can work in tampa bay. there is requirement for the age of vehicles, inspections, insurance and price surging. they leave out mandatory fares and wait times. the problem, fingerprint background checks will stay, which uber and lyft both refuse to do. >> we think our process measures up well against the competition and involves checks of state, local, federal registry and terrorism watch list. >> reporter: the ptc says current state law requires get driver prints and it turns out there are other ride-sharing companies including fare that already do that. fare moved into austin, texas after uber and lyft left that city.
