Relates to the definition and registration of mobility dealers
This bill defines "mobility dealer" as a business displaying or advertising more than five mobility vehicles annually or three at once, and requires registration for such dealers. It specifically covers devices that adapt vehicles for aging or disabled drivers (like hand controls or lifts), excluding courts, family sales, and financial institutions. Registration requires a surety bond ($20k-$100k based on sales volume), though existing new vehicle dealers can operate as mobility dealers without separate registration. The law directly affects businesses selling mobility equipment, clarifying regulatory requirements for this niche market.
