AN ACT RELATING TO MOTOR AND OTHER VEHICLES -- REGISTRATION OF VEHICLES

Summary

It amends Rhode Island’s vehicle registration law to add unpaid municipal fines of $200 or more as a reason to deny registration, requiring a $5 fee from the reporting agency. The measure also limits renewal and transfer of registrations for small Japanese “Kei” cars and trucks, while keeping existing safety, fraud and other grounds. The changes aim to improve fine collection and ensure certain vehicle types meet state standards.
