An Act amending Title 75 (Vehicles) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in fees, further providing for exemption of persons, entities and vehicles from fees.

HB 1036 adds a new exemption in Pennsylvania vehicle registration fees for active volunteer first responders. It allows volunteer emergency medical, fire, and rescue service members to pay a $10 processing fee instead of the full registration fee for vehicles they own and primarily drive while responding to emergencies. The exemption applies only to one passenger car or light truck per person and requires the volunteer to be the vehicle's owner and principal driver. This change directly affects volunteer emergency service organizations and their members who use personal vehicles for official emergency responses.
