What it does

This bill strikes the requirement for a certificate of title issued for a vehicle to contain the name and address of the previous owner, and instead requires the department of transportation (DOT) or county treasurer to maintain the previous owner’s information in the DOT’s or county treasurer’s records systems along with the other certificate of title information.
