Vermont S0103 updates the Periodic Inspection Manual to clarify vehicle inspection standards for rust and corrosion.
Vermont S0103 requires the Department of Motor Vehicles to update the Periodic Inspection Manual. The bill aims to clarify the distinction between structural rust and cosmetic rust on vehicles. It mandates that only rust that materially diminishes a vehicle's structural integrity or poses a danger to the driver, passengers, or other road users should cause a vehicle to fail inspection. Cosmetic rust, which does not affect safety, will not be grounds for failure.
