First, of course, the buyer should document the information.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Undoubtedly, the proposal is a strong beginning. The bill ought to become law as soon as possible.

Based on recently put-out state legislation, you would need to present a driver&#8217;s license or state ID if you were selling a catalytic converter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Customers would also be responsible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The spike in the thefts of catalytic converters has left car owners exasperated. Salvage yards and dealers pay a fortune to get their hands on these stolen\u00a0<span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">catalytic converters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The new rule demands that vendors of catalytic converters show purchasers a driver&#8217;s license or state identification card. Then, buyers would need to record that personal data. Buyers of catalytic converters who fail to maintain track of the sellers risk up to $5,000 in fines.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">That&#8217;s just the beginning, but car owners prefer stricter rules.
