Bill Summary
Relative to increasing operational safety for keyless ignition technology in motor vehicles. Transportation.
AI Summary
This bill aims to increase operational safety for keyless ignition technology in motor vehicles. It requires manufacturers to install technology that automatically shuts off the vehicle after a designated period of idling, as well as external warning technology that alerts the driver if the key or key code device is taken outside the vehicle while the engine is still running. Dealers and rental companies would be prohibited from selling, leasing, or renting vehicles without these safety features. The bill also directs the Registrar of Motor Vehicles, in consultation with the Secretary of Transportation, to establish the designated period for automatic shut-off and specify inspection requirements for these safety features. The provisions of the bill would take effect 2 years after its passage.
