Bill Summary
This bill repeals the current prohibition on sales of motor vehicles on Sunday.
AI Summary
This bill repeals existing Maine state laws that previously prohibited the sale of motor vehicles on Sundays. Specifically, the bill eliminates two sections of law (17 MRSA §3203 and §3203-A) that had previously restricted Sunday sales of vehicles. The bill also removes references to these sections in other parts of Maine's legal code, such as modifications to sections related to motor vehicle violations in 29-A MRSA §903 and §1108. By removing these legal restrictions, the bill will allow car dealerships and other motor vehicle sellers in Maine to conduct sales transactions on Sundays, which were previously prohibited. This change effectively deregulates the Sunday sales restriction for motor vehicles, giving businesses more flexibility in their sales operations and providing consumers with additional opportunities to purchase vehicles on Sundays.
