The proposed bill enacts R.S. 14:406, which establishes regulations regarding the manufacture, transfer, or sale of motor vehicle key programming or emulating devices and relay attack devices in Louisiana. It defines these devices and prohibits their manufacture, sale, or transfer, with specific exceptions for law enforcement and authorized personnel. The bill outlines that possession of such devices does not automatically constitute a violation unless there is intent to use them for criminal activities, with certain circumstances indicating such intent.

Penalties for violations include fines of up to one thousand dollars and/or imprisonment for up to six months. Additionally, individuals authorized to possess these devices must report any loss or theft to law enforcement within forty-eight hours, with similar penalties for failing to do so. The bill aims to enhance security measures against vehicle theft and unauthorized access while allowing legitimate use by authorized entities.
