Bill Summary

AN ACT RELATING TO MOTOR VEHICLES; REQUIRING THE TAXATION AND REVENUE DEPARTMENT TO ACCEPT PROOF OF FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY DISPLAYED ON A SOFTWARE APPLICATION ON A MOBILE DEVICE AS EVIDENCE OF FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY.

AI Summary

This bill requires the New Mexico Taxation and Revenue Department to accept proof of financial responsibility (car insurance) displayed on a mobile device software application as evidence of financial responsibility. The bill amends the existing Mandatory Financial Responsibility Act to explicitly state that law enforcement officers must accept such mobile device proof of insurance. This change allows drivers to provide proof of insurance using their smartphones or other mobile devices, rather than having to carry physical insurance documents.
