HB 2944 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2025 Regular Session

Providing authority for West Virginia law enforcement agencies to fine individual vehicle owners who fail to register their vehicle that have been parked at their residence for more than sixty days

HB 2944 amends West Virginia law to require vehicles with out-of-state license plates parked at a resident's home to be registered within 60 days (down from 90 days), instead of 90 days under current law. It directly affects individuals who park vehicles registered in another state at their West Virginia residence for extended periods. The bill authorizes law enforcement to issue fines for violations of this 60-day registration requirement. This change specifically targets long-term parking of out-of-state vehicles at private residences, excluding certain cases like commuting employees or students with out-of-state residency.
