Bill Summary
Motor vehicle dealers; conduct of business; business hours; filing changes. Changes the entity with which a dealer who changes his business hours must file such change from the Department of Motor Vehicles to the Motor Vehicle Dealer Board.
AI Summary
This bill modifies existing law regarding motor vehicle dealers' business hours by changing the entity to which dealers must report any changes to their operating hours. Previously, dealers were required to file these changes with the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), but this bill amends the law to require them to file such changes with the Motor Vehicle Dealer Board instead. The bill also clarifies that dealers must be open for business a minimum of 20 hours per week, with at least 10 of those hours falling between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on weekdays, though the Board can grant exceptions for good cause.
