Bill > A06776

This bill requires all dealers selling limited use motorcycles in New York to obtain a dealer registration from the commissioner of motor vehicles, with several key provisions. Specifically, dealers must be registered before selling these vehicles, and must obtain dealer demonstrator number plates. The bill increases the civil penalty for operating as an unregistered dealer from $1,000 to $2,000, with the option to reduce the penalty to $750 if registration is obtained within ten days of the penalty's imposition. Dealers must also ensure that any limited use motorcycle they acquire for resale has a manufacturer-affixed vehicle identification number. The bill authorizes the commissioner to create regulations for dealer identification, record-keeping, and documentation procedures for limited use motorcycle sales. Any fees collected will be deposited into the dedicated highway and bridge trust fund and the dedicated mass transportation fund. The bill will take effect 180 days after becoming law, with immediate authorization for the commissioner to develop necessary implementing regulations.
