Main points to focus on are...
1. These cars are limited use, and therefore do not significantly affect air quality.
2. The 500 vehicle limit is too low.
3. The State will benefit from the fees collected.
If passed, owners of cars caught up in the amnesty law, AB-619, would be able to re register under this law. A great deal of effort has been made to get this going. Please pass this information on, with enough support, we can make a difference.
If you prefer, you can also use this form letter:
Dear Assemblyman Kevin Jeffries,
I am writing you this letter in support of bill AB-1740. Californians need a fair and straightforward way to legally register specialty vehicles. In the past, California’s system for registering these vehicles has been confusing and misleading, and the current SB-100 is too restrictive with its 500 vehicle limit. This has resulted in frustration for the hobbyist, improper registrations, and lost revenue for the State. These vehicles only make up a small fraction of the total number of vehicles in the State, and are primarily used for car shows and special events. The majority of these vehicles are only driven once or twice a month, so their impact on emissions is insignificant.
Please use every means to bring AB-1740 into law.
Thank you for your efforts.
Sincerely,
