STAND. COM. REP. 957

Honolulu, Hawaii

, 2003

RE: S.B. No. 676

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Second State Legislature

Regular Session of 2003

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred S.B. No. 676 entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO MOTOR VEHICLES,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this bill is to exempt from the requirements for removing and shipping vehicles motor vehicle rental companies that periodically ship ten or more vehicles interisland or out-of- State.

Dollar Rent A Car and Catrala-Hawaii testified in support of this measure.

Your Committee finds that car rental companies often face a heavy clerical burden because of the documentation required to ship vehicles interisland or out-of-State. Exempting these companies from the requirements will help to alleviate their burden as well as facilitate the transportation of vehicles in an efficient manner.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Transportation that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 676 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Judiciary.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Transportation,
