The bill amends the Code of West Virginia by adding a new section, 17-16A-29A, which mandates that EZ-Passes must be transferable among vehicles owned by the same licensee. Specifically, it allows EZ-Passes issued to individual licensed drivers to be transferred among up to five vehicles that belong to the same vehicle class as defined by the West Virginia Parkways Authority (WVPEDTA) and are owned by that licensee.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that in order for the transfer of EZ-Passes to be valid, all vehicles involved must be enrolled in the EZ Pass program. This change aims to provide greater flexibility for drivers who own multiple vehicles, ensuring that they can utilize their EZ-Pass across different cars without the need for multiple transponders.
