Originally I thought the passengers could drink in the back while an isolated driver was driving to it's destination. However, review of the open container laws in IL and WI have me thinking otherwise. Currently it is insured/registered with normal passenger plates (not livery, CDL, etc). Does the open container law still apply, even with an isolated driver?

If so, what do I have to do to get around it? Do I have to register it for livery plates, and then put a not for hire sticker on it? ]]> Limo Licensing and Regulation bpi_79 http://www.limousinesonline.com/showthread.php?20321-Personal-use-party-bus-in-Illinois-WI
