JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – Have you noticed an expired or fake temporary license tag on a car while driving around the Show Me State? A new bill aims to crack down on that issue.
The Missouri House of Representatives approved HB 415 earlier this week, which advances to state senators for consideration. State Rep. Michael O’Donnell (R-Oakville) sponsors the legislation.
The bill would require dealerships to collect sales tax at the time of a vehicle purchase. Customers would be required to pay a lump sum before they can take home a car, or the sales tax would be rolled into monthly payments.
