To repeal section 301.210, RSMo 1994, relating to motor vehicles, and to enact in lieu thereof two new sections relating to the same subject.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF MISSOURI, AS FOLLOWS:

     Section A. Section 301.210, RSMo 1994, is repealed and two new sections enacted in lieu thereof, to be known as sections 301.210 and 301.465, to read as follows:

     301.210. 1. In the event of a sale or transfer of ownership of a motor vehicle or trailer for which a certificate of ownership has been issued, the holder of such certificate shall endorse on the same an assignment thereof, with warranty of title in form printed thereon, and prescribed by the director of revenue, with a statement of all liens or encumbrances on such motor vehicle or trailer, and deliver the same to the buyer at the time of the delivery to him of such motor vehicle or trailer. When the transfer of a motor vehicle, trailer, boat or outboard motor occurs within a corporation which holds a license to operate as a motor vehicle or boat dealer pursuant to sections 301.550 to 301.575, the provisions in subdivision (3) of subsection 6 of section 144.070, RSMo, shall not apply.

     2. The buyer shall then present such certificate, assigned as aforesaid, to the director of revenue, at the time of making application for the registration of such motor vehicle or trailer, whereupon a new certificate of ownership shall be issued to the buyer, the fee therefor being that prescribed in subsection 5 of section 301.190.

     3. If such motor vehicle or trailer is sold to a resident of another state or country, or if such motor vehicle or trailer is destroyed or dismantled, the owner thereof shall immediately notify the director of revenue. Certificates when so signed and returned to the director of revenue shall be retained by the director of revenue and all certificates shall be appropriately indexed so that at all times it will be possible for him to expeditiously trace the ownership of the motor vehicle or trailer designated therein.

     4. It shall be unlawful for any person to buy or sell in this state any motor vehicle or trailer registered under the laws of this state, unless, at the time of the delivery thereof, there shall pass between the parties such certificates of ownership with an assignment thereof, as provided in this section, and the sale of any motor vehicle or trailer registered under the laws of this state, without the assignment of such certificate of ownership, shall be fraudulent and void.

     301.465. 1. Any person who is an active member or alumni member of any Missouri chapter of the junior chamber of commerce may apply for special motor vehicle license plates for any vehicle he owns, either solely or jointly, for issuance either to passenger motor vehicles subject to the registration fees provided in section 301.055, or for a nonlocal property-carrying commercial motor vehicle licensed for a gross weight of nine thousand one pounds up through and including twelve thousand pounds as provided in section 301.057.

     2. Any such person shall make application for the special license plates on a form provided by the director of revenue and furnish such proof of membership in the junior chamber of commerce as the director may require. The director shall then issue license plates bearing the words "MISSOURI JAYCEES" in place of the words "SHOW-ME STATE" in a form prescribed by the advisory committee established in section 301.129. Such license plates shall be made with fully reflective material with a common color scheme and design, shall be clearly visible at night, and shall be aesthetically attractive, as prescribed by section 301.130. Such plates shall also bear the shield of the Missouri junior chamber of commerce to the left of the letters or numbers or combination thereof.

     3. There shall be a fee charged for each set of Missouri junior chamber of commerce license plates issued equal to the fee charged for personalized license plates in addition to other fees required by law. No more than one set of Missouri junior chamber of commerce license plates shall be issued to a qualified applicant. License plates issued under the provisions of this section shall not be transferable to any other person except that any registered coowner of the motor vehicle shall be entitled to operate the motor vehicle with such plates for the duration of the year licensed in the event of the death of the qualified person.
