Requiring the department of licensing to request motor vehicle odometer readings upon vehicle registration.
Summary
Requires the Department of Licensing (DOL) to request odometer information in the application for vehicle registration and vehicle registration renewal.
Requires the applications for original and renewal vehicle registrations to state that the vehicle owner is not required to provide the odometer information and that the failure to provide the information is not grounds to deny vehicle registration or issue any penalty.
Exempts from public disclosure the personally identifying information of persons who voluntarily report the vehicle odometer mileage as part of the vehicle registration renewal.
Requires the DOL to report, by May 1, 2025, the numbers of people who provided odometer information, numbers requested to report odometer information, and problems encountered in implementation.
