Summary

The bill changes the list of reasons the DMV can refuse registration and adds a new chapter that defines how “Kei” cars and trucks may be used on public roads. It allows existing Kei registrations to be renewed but bars their transfer, and limits them to roads with speed limits of 35 mph or less unless crossing an intersection under specific conditions. The changes affect all vehicle owners, municipalities, and the Division of Motor Vehicles.
