Summary

(1) Existing law makes confidential the home addresses of certain state officers and employees that appear in the Department of Motor Vehicles records, if an officer or employee requests that his or her address be kept confidential, with certain exemptions for information available to specified governmental agencies. This bill would require the department, as part of its vehicle registration renewal process, to provide a person, who requests a confidential home address, with any outstanding notices of toll evasion violations that appear in the person's record with the department. The bill would require this notice to be the same level of notification as is required to be given to a person who does not have a confidential home address. The bill would prohibit these outstanding violations to include a fee or charge for failure to pay the violation. The bill would authorize the department to collect a reasonable fee from the person that is necessary to cover the department's costs to administer these provisions. (2) Existing law requires the Department of Motor Vehicles to refuse to renew the registration of a vehicle if the registered owner or lessee has been mailed a notice of delinquent parking violation or a failure to pay a traffic citation and the processing agency has filed or electronically transmitted to the department an itemization of the unpaid parking or traffic citation penalty, including the administrative fee, and the owner or lessee has not paid the penalty and administrative fee. This bill would require the department to refuse to renew the registration of a vehicle if the processing agency has filed or electronically transmitted to the department an itemization of the unpaid toll violation, the department has mailed a notice of a toll evasion violation, and the person has not paid the penalty.
