Bill > HB3041

This bill modifies provisions related to motor vehicle safety inspections when applying for a Missouri certificate of ownership, which is a document proving legal ownership of a vehicle. Specifically, it exempts certain motor vehicles from the requirement of a current safety inspection when being sold to out-of-state buyers or when the vehicle is less than thirty thousand miles and within three years of its model year, provided it's sold by a private seller or a high-volume dealer. The bill also clarifies that for vehicles sold to out-of-state buyers or those with low mileage and recent model years, a licensed new or used motor vehicle dealer can perform the inspection. The existing requirement for a safety inspection before selling a used motor vehicle is maintained, but these new exemptions are introduced.
