B. Notwithstanding the existence of any other penalties, the public regulation commission may assess an administrative fine of not more than one thousand dollars ($1,000) for each violation of a provision of the Transportation Network Company Services Act or of a lawful rule or order of the commission. In the case of a continuing violation, each day's violation shall be deemed to be a separate and distinct offense.
