An act to amend Section 25250.51 of the Health and Safety Code, to
amend Section 42950 of the Public Resources Code, and to amend
Sections 21100 12200, 12204, and 34601
of, and to repeal Section 27314.5 of, the Vehicle
Code, relating to vehicles.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 501, as amended, Nazarian. Vehicles.
(1) Existing law prohibits the sale of motor brake friction
materials containing specified constituents in excess of specified
concentrations. Existing law, however, until December 31, 2023,
permits motor vehicle manufacturers and distributors, wholesalers, or
retailers to sell brake friction materials that are not certified as
compliant with that provision solely for the purpose of depletion of
inventories.
This bill would additionally permit motor vehicle dealers to
continue to sell or offer for sale brake friction material not
certified as compliant, as specified, if the brake friction material
was installed before the vehicle was acquired by the dealer.
(2) Existing law defines tire broker to mean a person that
arranges for the shipment of used or waste tires to or from a site
located within the state, or through the state, as defined. Existing
law requires a tire broker to submit periodic information to the
department on the used or waste tires arranged to be shipped to the
tire broker to, from, or through the state.
This bill would exclude from the definition of a tire broker a
tire retailer primarily engaged in the retail sale, service, and
installation of tires on customer vehicles, or a vehicle dealer, as
defined.
(3) Existing law authorizes local authorities to adopt rules and
regulations regarding regulating advertising signs on motor vehicles
parked or left standing on a public street as well as minimum
distances that the advertising sign must be moved after a specified
time period. Existing law exempts from local rules and regulations a
license plate frame containing paper advertisements issued by a
dealer within the license plate frame or any advertisement on that
license plate frame if the license plate frame does not obstruct or
impair the reading or recognition of a license plate by an electronic
device operated, as specified, or a remote emission sensing device,
as specified.
This bill would additionally exempt from local rules and
regulations a license plate bracket containing any advertisement
issued by a dealer if the license plate bracket is installed as
specified.
(4) Existing law requires a dealer, selling or offering for sale
any specified used passenger vehicle, except as otherwise provided,
to affix a specified notice on the window of the left front door or
as specified, and another specified notice on one rear seat lap belt
buckle at all times the vehicle is offered for sale and in a
specified manner.
This bill would delete that requirement.
(3) Existing law permits a consumer to file an application with
the recovery corporation for the payment of the consumer's eligible
claim if a dealer or lessor-retailer against whom the claim is
asserted has ceased selling and leasing motor vehicles to the general
public or has become subject to a petition in bankruptcy. Existing
law, for purposes of specified provisions, defines "eligible claim"
to mean an unsatisfied claim for economic loss, that is not barred by
the statutes of limitation and that accrues, as specified, to, among
other things, remit license or registration fees received or
contractually obligated to be paid from a consumer to the department,
or pay the amount specified in a consignment agreement to a consumer
after the sale of a consigned vehicle.
This bill would expand the definition of "eligible claim," to
include providing a consumer who purchased a vehicle from the dealer
or lessor-retailer with good title to the vehicle, free from any
security interest or other lien, encumbrance, or claim, unless
otherwise clearly and conspicuously provided for by the written sale
agreement, and to include paying to a third party any amount received
from, or contractually obligated to be paid by, a consumer for
insurance, service contracts, or goods or services purchased through
the dealer or lessor-retailer and to be provided by the third party.
(4) Existing law permits a consumer to file an application with
the recovery corporation for the payment of the consumer's eligible
claim if a dealer or lessor-retailer against whom the claim is
asserted has ceased selling and leasing motor vehicles to the general
public or has become subject to a petition in bankruptcy.
This bill would require, if the eligible claim is based on the
failure to provide good title, the application to be accompanied by a
statement from the legal owner or other claimant of the amount, if
any, that he or she received from the dealer or lessor-retailer. The
bill would require the eligible claim to be limited to the remaining
dollar amount necessary to discharge the valid security interest,
lien, encumbrance, or other clouding title to the vehicle.
This bill would require, if the eligible claim is based on the
failure to pay third parties for insurance, service contracts, or
goods or services, the application to be accompanied by a statement
from the third party of the amount, if any, that he or she received
from the dealer or lessor-retailer. The bill would require that the
eligible claim be limited to the difference between the dollar amount
the consumer paid or was contractually obligated to pay to the
dealer or lessor-retailer for the insurance, service contracts, or
goods or services purchased through the dealer or lessor-retailer and
to be provided by the third party and the dollar amount actually
received by the third party from the dealer or lessor-retailer for
the insurance, service contracts, or goods or services.
(5) Existing law excludes from the definition of commercial motor
vehicle, for purposes of certain provisions, specified trucks and
truck tractors with a gross vehicle weight rating of less than 26,001
pounds, when used solely to tow specified trailers. Existing law
prohibits a motor carrier of property from operating a commercial
motor vehicle on any public highway in this state, unless it has,
among other things, registered with the department its carrier
identification number, as specified, and holds a valid motor carrier
permit issued to that motor carrier by the department.
This bill would additionally exclude from the definition of
commercial motor vehicle specified trucks and truck tractors, with a
gross vehicle rating of less than 26,0001 pounds, operated solely to
tow specified trailers, including trailers designed to transport
watercraft. This bill would also exclude from the definition of
commercial motor vehicle specified truck and truck tractors, with a
gross vehicle weight rating of less than 16,001 pounds, operated
singly in noncommercial use.
(6) This bill would make other technical, nonsubstantive,
conforming, and clarifying changes.

State-mandated local program: no.

repossessing agency licensed under Chapter 11 (commencing with
Section 7500) of Division 3 of the Business and Professions Code and
its registered employees.
(2) The Legislature finds that the safety and welfare of the
general public is promoted by permitting local authorities to
regulate tow truck service companies and operators by requiring
licensure, insurance, and proper training in the safe operation of
towing equipment, thereby ensuring against towing mistakes that may
lead to violent confrontation, stranding motorists in dangerous
situations, impeding the expedited vehicle recovery, and wasting
state and local law enforcement's limited resources.

shall issue a certificate of successful completion of the
examination, bearing the person's name and identification card
number. The certificate shall not serve in lieu of successful
completion of the required examination administered as part of any
subsequent application for a driver's license. The department is not
required to enter the results of the examination into the
computerized record of the person's identification card or otherwise
retain a record of the examination or results.
(o) (1) This section does not authorize a local authority to enact
or enforce an ordinance or resolution that establishes a violation
if a violation for the same or similar conduct is provided in this
code, nor does it authorize a local authority to enact or enforce an
ordinance or resolution that assesses a fine, penalty, assessment, or
