Vehicles: registration plates; temporary registration permits for specialty plates; provide for. Amends sec. 227 of 1949 PA 300 (MCL 257.227).
HB 5110 modifies Michigan's vehicle registration process by allowing drivers to use electronic proof of insurance instead of physical documents when renewing registration. Specifically, it permits insurers to transmit vehicle policy information to the Secretary of State every 14 days as valid proof of insurance, replacing the need for paper receipts. The bill also requires that temporary registration permits (issued while waiting for plates) be provided at no cost to applicants. All electronic insurance information submitted under this provision remains confidential and cannot be shared under Michigan's Freedom of Information Act, except for specific health department or court-related purposes.
