Allows a person to remove their name from a jointly titled motor vehicle registration if a divorce decree awards the vehicle to the other party.
Hawaii SB2081 amends the registration law to allow a person to remove their name from a certificate of registration if they are party to a divorce decree that awards the vehicle to the other party. This change aims to protect divorced individuals from liability related to abandoned vehicles, citations, unmet registration requirements, and accidents. The bill modifies Section 286-49 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes to reflect this change.
