California drivers who are set to register their cars in July are getting a bit of a break as lawmakers and Gov. Jerry Brown try to negotiate a budget deal.
The state won't be sending those drivers their annual registration bill 60 days in advance as usual and will waive any late fees for at least a month.
The budget deal under negotiation includes an increase in vehicle registration fees.
Gov. Brown signed a new law, SB 94, on Wednesday to delay sending registration notices.
Under current law, the annual vehicle license fee is set to drop from 1.15% of a car's value to .65% on July 1.
The governor wants to avoid sending drivers two bills should he succeed at extending the hike.
"It is going to eliminate some potential confusion and duplication," Department of Finance spokesman H.D. Palmer told the L.A. Times.
In addition to the delayed notices, CHP officers are also being instructed to ignore late registrations in the month of July.
