This bill amends Title 75 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes regarding the registration of vehicles, specifically focusing on the exemptions for farm vehicles. The amendments increase the distance limitations for certain types of farm vehicles. For instance, the maximum distance between farms for Type A vehicles is increased from 50 to 100 miles, and for Type B vehicles, it is raised from 25 to 50 miles. Additionally, the distance for Type C vehicles is expanded from 10 to 20 miles, while Type D vehicles also see an increase from 50 to 100 miles for the same criteria.

Furthermore, the bill introduces a requirement for a biennial certificate of exemption for farm vehicles that qualify for registration exemption. It also mandates that owners of these vehicles maintain minimum levels of liability insurance coverage, which can be satisfied through general farm liability insurance, rather than the specific coverage required for registered motor vehicles. The changes aim to provide more flexibility for farm vehicle operations while ensuring adequate insurance coverage is in place. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
