Amend Title To Conform

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

SECTION    1.    Chapter 3, Title 56 of the 1976 Code is amended by adding:

"ARTICLE 147

'Drivers For a Cure' Special License Plates

Section 56-3-14710.    (A)    The Department of Motor Vehicles may issue 'Drivers For a Cure' special license plates to owners of private passenger carrying motor vehicles, as defined in Section 56-3-630, and motorcycles, as defined in Section 56-1-10, registered in their names. Each special license plate must be issued or revalidated for a biennial period that expires twenty-four months from the month the special license plate is issued.

(B)    This special license plate must be the same size and general design as regular motor vehicle license plates.

(C)    The requirements for production, collection, and distribution of fees for the plate are those set forth in Section 56-3-8100. The biennial fee for each special license plate is thirty dollars plus the regular motor vehicle license fee set forth in Article 5, Chapter 3, Title 56. Any portion of the thirty dollar fee in excess of the costs of production and distribution of the license plates must be distributed to the Duke Cancer Institute."

SECTION    2.    Section 56-3-210(A)(9)(b) is amended to read:

"(b)    Counties and other nondealer entities may receive temporary license plates from a registered distributor or the department. The department must receive all temporary tags from a statewide automobile dealer association."

SECTION    3.    This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
