This bill amends several sections of Nebraska's motor vehicle laws, primarily focusing on increasing fees associated with records requests and changing the distribution of certain revenues. Specifically, it raises the fee for a certified abstract of an operating record from four dollars and fifty cents to twenty-one dollars, with a portion of the fee allocated to the General Fund and the Department of Motor Vehicles Cash Fund. Additionally, the bill introduces a new fee structure for various records, including a fee of thirty dollars per thousand records, and establishes a new operator's license services system to be implemented by July 1, 2032.
The bill also defines the term "vehicle" to encompass a broader range of motorized transport, including trailers and snowmobiles, and eliminates obsolete provisions from current law. It mandates that fees collected from records requests be remitted to the State Treasurer and specifies how these funds should be allocated among different state funds. The act is set to become operative on July 1, 2025, but due to the declaration of an emergency, it will take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
