Vehicles: temporary license plates.

Existing law requires a dealer or lessor-retailer, when selling a vehicle, to attach for display a copy of a report-of-sale form to the vehicle before the vehicle is delivered to the purchaser. Existing law also requires a dealer or lessor-retailer, when selling a vehicle, to attach a temporary license plate to a vehicle that does not already display a license plate issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles. This bill would require a dealer or lessor-retailer, when selling a vehicle, to attach for display a copy of a report-of-sale form to the vehicle before the vehicle is delivered to the purchaser only if the dealer does not attach a temporary license plate to the vehicle.
