The bill amends and reenacts sections of the Code of West Virginia to authorize certain agencies within the Department of Transportation to promulgate legislative rules. Specifically, it grants the Division of Motor Vehicles the authority to establish rules related to motor vehicle equipment, compulsory motor vehicle liability insurance, and special purpose vehicles. The rules are to be filed and modified as necessary by the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee, ensuring that they meet legislative standards.
The bill explicitly authorizes three specific legislative rules that were filed in the State Register: one concerning motor vehicle equipment, another regarding compulsory motor vehicle liability insurance, and a third related to special purpose vehicles. These rules were filed on July 24, 2025, and June 23, 2025, and include modifications made to address objections from the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee. The bill is effective immediately upon passage, reflecting the urgency of implementing these regulations.
