Pickup trucks.Existing law defines a commercial vehicle, for purposes of the Vehicle Code, as a motor vehicle of a type required to be registered under that code that is used or maintained for the transportation of persons for hire, compensation, or profit or designed, used, or maintained primarily for the transportation of property. Existing law subjects pickup trucks to commercial vehicle weight fees. Existing law requires an application for the original or renewal registration of a vehicle, including a pickup truck, to include specified information.This bill would exclude from that definition a pickup truck that is not used for the transportation of property for hire, compensation, or profit. The bill would exempt those excluded pickup trucks from commercial vehicle weight fees. The bill would require a registration application for a pickup truck to include whether or not the vehicle is a commercial vehicle. The bill would prohibit a pickup truck that is not a commercial vehicle and that renews registration after January 1, 2025, from being required to replace the vehicles license plates issued before January 1, 2025.Existing law imposes registration fees, vehicle license fees, and weight fees on specified motor vehicles. Existing law requires a penalty to be added for the delinquent payment of specified fees, including registration, vehicle license, and weight fees, as specified.This bill would prohibit the total penalties of these fees from exceeding 100% of the original balance due in order to complete a renewal of registration.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: YES Local Program: NO Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1. The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:(a) The average cost of registering a vehicle in California has increased by nearly 85 percent over the past decade and is currently over $300.(b) If the entire registration is not paid in full by the due date, late fees and penalties immediately begin to accrue.(c) The maximum late penalties for the average registration is approximately double the original amount due. However, these penalties are regressive, with the owners of older and lower value vehicles facing maximum late charges of nearly 150 percent.(d) According to the Franchise Tax Board, approximately 4,000,000 vehicle registration accounts become delinquent every year, and nearly 1,400,000 Californians annually face wage garnishment or the involuntary withdrawal of funds from their bank accounts to collect debt on behalf of the Department of Motor Vehicles.(e) Vehicles with delinquent registrations may also be impounded and sold to collect the debt.(f) Californians with delinquent registration fees remain liable for the debt through civil action even if they sell or transfer the vehicle.(g) Both the Eighth Amendment of the United States Constitution and Section 17 of Article I of the California Constitution prohibit the government from imposing excessive fines.(h) In 2020, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals determined that charging California motorists a 100-percent late fee on a parking ticket may violate the Eight Amendments Excessive Fines Clause (Pimentel v. City of Los Angeles (2020) 974 F.3d 917).(i) It is the intent of the Legislature to prevent the Department of Motor Vehicles from charging late penalties for delinquent vehicle registration payments that are grossly disproportional to the underlying offense.(j) The Legislature has previously taken action to protect motorists from other types of high, late penalties. In 2022, the Legislature reduced the penalty for an unpaid traffic ticket by two-thirds and reduced the maximum penalties for a delinquent toll evasion violation by up to 10 times less than the previous penalty rates. In 2017, the Legislature waived all late fees on a parking ticket for indigent motorists who enroll in a payment plan. SECTION 1.SEC. 2. Section 260 of the Vehicle Code is amended to read:260.
