Bill > HB5110

This bill amends the Michigan Vehicle Code to modify vehicle registration renewal requirements and introduce a new temporary registration permit provision. Specifically, the bill updates language from "shall" to "must" in several subsections related to registration renewal, ensuring applicants provide proof of vehicle insurance and a certificate of title. The most significant change is the addition of a new subsection that allows the secretary of state to issue a temporary registration permit when a person's current vehicle registration will expire before they receive their new registration plate. This temporary permit would be valid for up to 60 days and issued without charge, providing flexibility for vehicle owners during the registration plate transition process. The bill also makes a minor technical change to a reference in the department of health, changing it to "department of health and human services." These modifications aim to streamline the vehicle registration process and provide more convenience for Michigan vehicle owners by allowing them to maintain legal vehicle registration during plate transitions.
