(1) An automated motor vehicle and trailer registration and titling system shall be developed and implemented as expeditiously as practicable in all counties of the Commonwealth. The automated motor vehicle and trailer registration system shall be designed to enable Kentucky's county clerks to produce motor vehicle and trailer certificates of registration in their offices, and certificates of title in Frankfort, by automated means utilizing telecommunication terminals and associated devices supplied by the Commonwealth, to inhibit registration and transfer of stolen motor vehicles or trailers, to improve the capability of detecting and recovering such vehicles, to ensure development of a common vehicle information database to improve efficiency in auditing motor vehicle usage tax, license fee collections, and in collecting personal property tax to provide information to the traffic record system, and to provide improved security interest protection to potential creditors throughout Kentucky while simultaneously reducing the number of forms that must be processed and stored each year in Kentucky. (2) The Transportation Cabinet is hereby directed to, as expeditiously as practicable, develop an automated motor vehicle and trailer registration and titling system, having, as a minimum, the capabilities or functions described in this chapter, and to acquire and assure the installation of such equipment or services as are necessary to enable the system as described in this chapter to be operated in all counties of the Commonwealth. (3) All departments of state government affected by the system are hereby directed to cooperate with the Transportation Cabinet for purposes of assuring orderly implementation of this chapter. ## Nearby sections - [KRS § 186A.005 186A.005 Definitions for chapter](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXVI_C186A_S186A.005.md) - [KRS § 186A.010 186A.010 Automated motor vehicle and trailer registration and titling -- Transportation Cabinet to develop system](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXVI_C186A_S186A.010.md) - [KRS § 186A.015 186A.015 Automated motorboat registration and titling -- Agencies to implement system](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXVI_C186A_S186A.015.md) - [KRS § 186A.017 186A.017 Electronic title application and registration system -- Application by approved entity -- Contracts with third parties -- Fees -- Administrative regulations](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXVI_C186A_S186A.017.md) - [KRS § 186A.020 186A.020 Cabinet authorized to promulgate administrative regulations and institute programs](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXVI_C186A_S186A.020.md) - [KRS § 186A.025 186A.025 Responsibility and authority for administration and support of system](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXVI_C186A_S186A.025.md) - [KRS § 186A.030 186A.030 Computation and collection of motor vehicle and trailer ad valorem taxes](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXVI_C186A_S186A.030.md) - [KRS § 186A.035 186A.035 Motor vehicle registration by birth month of owner -- Alternative schedule for certain vehicles -- Joint tenancy with right of survivorship for motor vehicle jointly owned by married couple -- Clerk's fee -- Renewal of registration](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXVI_C186A_S186A.035.md) - [KRS § 186A.040 186A.040 Accessible online insurance verification system -- Definitions -- Administrative regulations -- Technical advisory committee -- Notification of cancellation, nonrenewal of policy, or absence of vehicle identification number to insured -- Revocation of license -- Information not subject to Kentucky Open Records Act](https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/statutes/STATE_KY_TXVI_C186A_S186A.040.md) - [KRS § 186A.042 186A.042 Prohibition against licensing of personal motor vehicle without listing of vehicle identification number as insured vehicle -- Exceptions -- Submission of paper or electronic proof of insurance card to county clerk.
