Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to motor vehicles; authorizing pro rata registration taxes on unused vehicles; amending Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 168.013, by adding a subdivision.

AI Summary

This bill allows vehicle owners to pay a prorated (proportional) registration tax for vehicles that were not used on public roads during part of their registration period. Specifically, if a vehicle's registration has expired and was not driven on public streets or highways for one or more months, the owner can calculate their registration tax based on a reduced rate. The tax will be calculated by taking the standard full-year registration tax, dividing it by 12, and then multiplying it by the number of months remaining in the 12-month registration period. To qualify for this prorated tax, the vehicle owner must submit a verified written application to the registrar certifying that the vehicle was not operated on public streets or highways during the months after its registration expired. This provision provides financial relief for vehicle owners who temporarily do not use their vehicles, allowing them to pay only for the months of actual registration and potential use.
