REGISTRATION INFORMATION

A TABULAR REVIEW IS PRESENTED OF PROVISIONS IN THE UNIFORM VEHICLE CODE AND STATE LAWS PERTAINING TO INFORMATION REQUIRED IN AN APPLICATION FOR REGISTRATION OF A VEHICLE. THE DESIRABILITY OF A HIGH DEGREE OF UNIFORMITY AMONG REGISTRATION INFORMATION LAWS WAS EMPHASIZED BY THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY SAFETY BUREAU. THE UNIFORM VEHICLE CODE INDICATES THAT AN APPLICATION FOR REGISTRATION MUST CONTAIN SPECIFIED INFORMATION ABOUT THE OWNER AND THE VEHICLE. STATE LAWS ARE SHOWN IN THREE TABLES BASED ON AN OUTLINE OF THE UNIFORM VEHICLE CODE PROVISIOIONS. THREE STATES ARE NOT INCLUDED, ALABAMA, TENNESSEE AND VIRGINIA. ALABAMA DOES NOT HAVE A LAW COMPARABLE TO UNIFORM VEHICLE CODE. TENNESSEE AND VIRGINIA HAVE COMPARABLE LAWS BUT THEY DO NOT CONTAIN PROVISIONS COMPARABLE TO THOSE IN THE CODE OR THE TABLES.
