Bill > H424

This bill modifies existing Massachusetts consumer protection law by creating an exception for online automobile sales transactions. Specifically, the bill allows sellers with a Class 1 license (which typically permits motor vehicle sales) to conduct transactions where the buyer signs the sales contract electronically while not physically present at the seller's business location. The key requirement is that the seller must provide written notice to the buyer at the time of sale stating that standard consumer protection regulations do not apply to this type of transaction. The bill appears designed to provide more flexibility for automobile dealers in conducting sales through digital platforms while ensuring transparency by mandating that buyers are explicitly informed about the different legal protections in these online transactions.
