Bill regarding vehicle registration passes Senate

Written by emallers on March 26th, 2013

I authored legislation regarding vehicle registration, which passed the Senate last week with a unanimous vote.

House Bill (HB) 1082 removes the requirement that the person whose name appears on the vehicle registration must sign it. As the result of the bill, individuals who fail to sign their vehicle registration will no longer be subject to a Class C infraction.

I have spoken with many constituents who were unaware that they were violating the law by not signing their vehicle registration. We worked with the Bureau of Motor Vehicles on this piece of legislation to remove this unnecessary penalty on Hoosier drivers.

HB 1082 will now head to the governor’s desk to be signed into law.
