The bill amends South Dakota law regarding the sale of off-road vehicles by licensed dealers at special events outside their primary business location. Specifically, it allows dealers to apply for a special permit to sell or offer off-road vehicles at events lasting up to seven days, provided they hold a franchise for the vehicle and no competing dealer in the event's county has a franchise for the same make. The application for the permit must be submitted to the department at least twenty days prior to the event, and there is no fee required for the permit.

Additionally, the bill mandates that dealers must prominently display the special permit during the event. This modification aims to streamline the process for off-road vehicle dealers to participate in special events while ensuring that local competition is respected.
