Relating to the prohibited manufacture and sale of motor vehicles equipped with remote vehicle disabling technology.

SB 381 prohibits manufacturers and dealers from selling or making motor vehicles equipped with remote vehicle disabling technology, which includes any device or software that can remotely disable a vehicle's operation (excluding standard ignition interlocks used in DUI cases). The law, effective September 1, 2025, requires compliance by January 1, 2026, and imposes license revocation for violations by licensed dealers. It directly affects automotive manufacturers, dealers, and distributors by banning the sale or distribution of vehicles containing this technology. The bill does not restrict existing vehicles but applies to new vehicle sales and manufacturing from the effective date.
