Referred to the Senate Transportation Committee on February 13, 2006
Amendment offered to the Senate on February 27, 2006
By the Senate Transportation Committee, to make a corrective change in the definition subsection. Additionally, a change was made limiting the circumstances under which a rental car business may be relieved of liability for a traffic infraction committed in a rental vehicle. Specifically, a rental car company may be relieved of liability for a traffic infraction committed in a vehicle owned by the rental car business only if the business either: 1) provides the name and address of the individual renting the vehicle at the time of the infraction; or 2) states that the business is unable to determine who was driving the vehicle at the time of the infraction because the vehicle had been stolen, and furnishes a copy of a filed police report to that effect. This change was also made to corresponding language regarding rental car business relief from liability for toll enforcement camera infractions and traffic safety camera infractions.
