Golf carts and low-speed vehicles; require VIN issued by manufacturer or DOR for operation on public roads.

SB 2817 would have required all golf carts and low-speed vehicles (defined as vehicles under 25 mph) operating on Mississippi public roads to display a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). Owners without a manufacturer-provided VIN would need to apply to the Mississippi Department of Revenue (DOR) for one, providing proof of ownership, vehicle compliance, and paying a $100 fee, with the VIN displayed as a 7x4-inch metal plate on the vehicle's front. The bill also updated definitions and referenced existing registration rules but did not create new registration requirements. The bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and never became law.
