used motor vehicle dealers; appropriation
This bill requires used motor vehicle dealers to complete a 6-hour education course covering sales regulations (including consumer protections and licensing rules) before obtaining or renewing a license. It mandates criminal background checks for owners with 20%+ stake in the business (with exemptions for new vehicle dealers and dealers licensed before December 2023). Dealers must also sign a form defining "curbstoning" (selling without proper license) and acknowledging penalties for unlicensed sales. The law applies to new license applications and renewals for used vehicle dealers, excluding new vehicle franchise dealers and existing licensees who haven’t changed license types or locations.
