The Honorable Casper R. Taylor, Jr.
Speaker of the House
State House
Annapolis MD 21401
Dear Mr. Speaker:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed House Bill 114 - Vehicle Laws ~ Automotive-Related Industries - Regulation.
This bill provides for the regulation of certain automotive-related industries and
business practices under the Maryland Vehicle Law. The bill requires automotive
repair facilities and vehicle storage facilities to keep and maintain for at least one
year accurate and complete records regarding vehicles that are being repaired or
stored at the facilities. Records of automotive repair facilities and vehicle storage
facilities, as well as vehicle auctioneers, are subject to inspection by the Motor Vehicle
Administration and law enforcement agencies.
Senate Bill 149, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me today,
accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign House
Bill 114.
Sincerely,
Parris N. Glendening
Governor
House Bill No. 114

certain automotive-related industries; authorizing certain employees of the
