| Originally Posted by Crvtte65 Senate Bill 2061 and Senate Bill 2108 Bill 2061 actually in Section 9 has the same proposal as the entire 2108 (at least online) but whatever. Basically, it requires someone to be "natural" (US citizen)and licensed by the registrar to register a MV. Course it has an "out" where it says "Except as otherwise provided in this chapter or in regulations adopted by the registrar"... so that gives the RMV to completely disregard it. |
