Insurers and rental/leasing companies
are required annually to provide reports to the Secretary of
Transportation. Purpose is to reduce comprehensive insurance
premiums charged by insurers of vehicles due to thefts and
distribution of stolen parts.
US Code:
49
USC 331 Name of Law: Motor Vehicle and Driver Programs
The decrease in burden hours is
due to less manual labor, improved technology and networking to
store, retrieve, compile and generate information necessary to
complete the report. Additionally, there was a decrease in the
number of companies that issued motor vehicle insurance policies
written within a State and several rental and leasing companies
that have merged into one entity or have been exempted from the
reporting requirements since the last reporting period. The agency
has re-estimated the burden hours to be 58,186 total annual hours
requested in lieu of 63,238 as the current OMB inventory. This is a
decrease of 5,052 hours.
