This bill proposes to amend current statutes regarding the use of manufacturer license plates for unladen trucks and passenger vehicles. Under the current law, these vehicles are exempt from registration while being used as specified, provided they display the appropriate manufacturer plates. The bill introduces an alternative to the requirement for a record of assignment, allowing personal transportation use of the vehicle if other evidence of a contract and designation between the manufacturer and the user is present in the vehicle. Additionally, the bill modifies the existing language in the statute by removing the stipulation that a record of assignment must be present in the vehicle for personal use. This change aims to simplify the requirements for using manufacturer vehicles for personal transportation, thereby broadening the scope of authorized users beyond just those with a formal assignment record. Overall, the bill seeks to enhance flexibility in the use of manufacturer vehicles while maintaining necessary regulatory oversight.
