Summary

Existing law authorizes the Department of Motor Vehicles to establish contracts for electronic programs that allow qualified private industry partners to join the department in providing services that include processing and payment programs for vehicle registration and titling transactions, and services related to reporting vehicle sales and producing temporary license plates. Existing law requires the department to charge a $3 transaction fee for the provision of the information and services, and to deposit the fees collected into the Motor Vehicle Account. Existing law authorizes the private industry partner to pass on the transaction fee to the customer, as specified. Existing law requires the department, for a specified period, to charge private industry partners an additional $1 transaction fee for the implementation of the private industry partners' proportionate share of departmentwide system improvements. Existing law prohibits a private industry partner from passing on the $1 fee to the customer. This bill would delete the prohibition against passing on the $1 transaction fee to the consumer. The bill would specify that the $1 is to be imposed both in addition to, and in accordance with, the $3 transaction fee. Existing law authorizes the Department of Motor Vehicles to allow a person to submit any document required to be submitted to the department by using electronic media, as specified, instead of requiring the actual submittal of the original document. If a signature is required on a document in order to complete a transaction, the requirement may be satisfied for an electronically submitted document if the signature is also submitted electronically and the department retains information verifying the identity of the person submitting the electronic signature. This bill would eliminate the requirement that the department retain information verifying the identity of the person submitting the electronic signature. The bill would make additional technical, nonsubstantive changes. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
