Revise laws related to motor vehicle laws for clarity and consistency
This bill revises Montana's motor vehicle laws to improve clarity and consistency by reorganizing definitions and consolidating similar terms like "motor boat" and "vessel." It directly affects vehicle owners, registrants, and the Department of Transportation by updating how terms such as "specially constructed vehicle" and "declared weight" are defined. Key provisions include clarifying what counts as a motor vehicle, standardizing penalty references, and repealing outdated sections to eliminate duplicative rules. The bill also updates definitions related to vehicle rentals and accommodations to ensure clearer regulatory language across multiple chapters of the Montana Code Annotated.
