The bill establishes procedures to allow a vehicle titled or branded and registered as a low-speed vehicle to be administratively converted to a golf cart upon verification of the conversion by the Department of Highway Safety & Motor Vehicles, which is accomplished by the owner’s submittal of an affidavit, surrender of the registration license plate and current certificate of title, payment of a $40 administrative fee, and placement of a specified decal on the rear of the converted vehicle.
If approved by the Governor, these provisions take effect July 1, 2013.
