AI Summary

This bill authorizes the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV), a state agency responsible for vehicle registration and driver licensing, to create and implement a legislative rule concerning "special purpose vehicles." This means the DMV can now officially establish regulations for vehicles that don't fit standard categories, such as certain types of trailers, construction equipment, or other specialized machinery, ensuring they are properly classified and regulated on the road. The specific rule being authorized was filed with the State Register on June 23, 2025, and is referenced as 91 CSR 25, operating under the authority granted by section 17A-13-1 of the West Virginia Code.
