(1) The name, age and residence of the person applying for the permit;
(2) Whether or not the applicant himself or herself is to drive such limousine and whether or not a driver is to be hired; and
(3) The type of motor vehicle to be used, the vehicle identification number, the State license number and the seating capacity of any such vehicle according to its trade rating.
