Bill summary

Directs the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to study federal and state regulation of motorcoaches, in consultation with the Department of Public Safety and the North Carolina Motorcoach Association. The DMV must consider the following: (1) federal regulation of motorcoaches, (2) the effects of regulations and requirements of other states on North Carolina-registered motorcoaches traveling and doing business in those states, (3) regulations for out-of-state motorcoaches traveling and doing business in North Carolina, (4) the equity of regulations governing North Carolina-registered motorcoaches traveling in other states and out-of-state registered motorcoaches traveling in North Carolina, (5) whether North Carolina may enter into reciprocity agreements with other states to exempt North Carolina-registered motorcoaches traveling out-of-state, (6) whether any legislative change is needed to ensure North Carolina motorcoaches are not at a competitive disadvantage with those of other states, (7) other topics deemed relevant. The DMV will report its findings by December 1, 2018, to the Joint Legislative Transportation Oversight Committee and the Joint Legislative Committee on Justice and Public Safety.
