A BILL FOR AN ACT
relating to transportation.

SECTION 1. Section 286-26, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by amending subsection (e) to read as follows:
"(e) Upon application for a certificate of
inspection to be issued for a vehicle or moped, an inspection as prescribed by
the director under subsection (g) shall be conducted on the vehicle or moped,
and if the vehicle or moped is found to be in a safe operating condition, including
adhering to head lamp requirements and specifications pursuant to section
291-25(a), as applicable, a certificate of inspection shall be issued upon
payment of a fee to be determined by the director[.]; provided that
no certificate of inspection shall be issued if the vehicle or moped is found
to have a muffler that has been altered, installed, or otherwise modified in
any way which will noticeably increase the noise emitted by the motor vehicle
or moped above that emitted by the motor vehicle or moped as equipped from the
factory. The certificate shall state
the effective date, the termination date, the name of the issuing insurance
carrier, the policy number of the motor vehicle insurance identification card
for the inspected motor vehicle as specified by section 431:10C-107 or state
the information contained in the proof of insurance card as specified by
section 431:10G-106, and the odometer reading of the vehicle on the date of
inspection. A sticker, authorized by the
director, shall be affixed to the vehicle or moped at the time a certificate of
inspection is issued. An inspection
sticker that has been lost, stolen, or destroyed shall be replaced without
reinspection by the inspection station that issued the original inspection
sticker upon presentation of the current certificate of inspection; provided
that the current certificate of inspection and inspection sticker shall not
have expired at the time the replacement is requested. The director shall adopt rules to determine
the fee for replacement of lost, stolen, or destroyed inspection stickers.
"
SECTION 2. Statutory material to be repealed is bracketed and stricken. New statutory material is underscored.
