Existing law authorizes the Department of Motor Vehicles to establish contracts for electronic programs that allow qualified private industry partners to provide services that include processing and payment programs for vehicle registration and titling transactions. Existing law authorizes the department to establish the maximum amount that a qualified private industry partner may charge its customers, but requires the department to annually adjust that amount, as specified.
The bill would delete that authorization and required adjustment, and would instead require the department to limit the amount that a qualified private industry partner may charge its customers to 2% above the amount that the department charges for the service when procured directly from the department's internet website or offices.
