Additionally, it establishes a $75 late fee for failing to renew a vehicle's registration within thirty days of its expiration, also deposited into the state highway account, though this fee can be waived if the owner has declared the vehicle is not in use and will not be operated on state highways. The bill also makes technical corrections to existing statutes and declares an emergency, setting an effective date of July 1, 2026.
