The bill, titled the Lilly Glaubach Act, aims to enhance motor vehicle safety regulations in Florida. It mandates that all vehicles required to be licensed in the state must display license plates on both the front and rear. Additionally, it requires motor vehicle repair shops to request a written crash report from customers when repair costs are estimated to be $2,500 or more. If the customer does not provide this report, the repair shop must submit a finalized repair estimate to a database maintained by the Department of Law Enforcement within three business days. The bill also allows the department to revoke a repair shop's registration if it fails to comply with these requirements.

Furthermore, the bill revises the items that must be included in a written repair estimate, such as the vehicle identification number and a detailed description of the customer's problem. It also makes technical changes to existing statutes and reenacts several sections to incorporate the amendments made by this act. The effective date for most provisions is set for January 1, 2026, while the act itself is scheduled to take effect on July 1, 2025.
