The bill amends and reenacts sections of the Code of West Virginia to grant specific agencies within the Department of Transportation the authority to promulgate legislative rules. It specifically authorizes the Division of Motor Vehicles to establish rules concerning motor vehicle equipment, compulsory motor vehicle liability insurance, and special purpose vehicles. These rules are to be filed and modified as necessary by the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee.

The bill includes the authorization of three specific legislative rules: one related to motor vehicle equipment, filed on July 24, 2025; another concerning compulsory motor vehicle liability insurance, which was modified to address objections from the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee and refiled on September 22, 2025; and a third rule regarding special purpose vehicles, filed on June 23, 2025. This legislative action aims to streamline the regulatory process for the Division of Motor Vehicles and ensure compliance with state law.
