Vision 21 (V21) modules for vehicle registration and electronic titles for lien holders
are currently under development.
A bridge is being built between these modules and the existing
Registration and Titling System (RTS), allowing us to offer these services. But
full
functionality for some of the modules will not be realized until the completion
of the entire V21 system, expected in 2013.
Module 1: Vehicle Sales
This module will accommodate changes in Texas law that take effect in 2008.
The module will include:
- Automated Dealer Temp Tags – These are temporary tags issued by
vehicle dealers
to buyers. The Web-based program will create a database that allows
law enforcement to reduce criminal activity by verifying the tag and vehicle owner.
- Plate-to-Owner – This will allow vehicle owners to keep their plates when
they purchase a new car or truck and require dealerships to remove the
plates from used vehicles that are traded-in or purchased. Keeping your
plates protects you from such things as parking fines or toll-road
violations that may be committed by the new owner of your old vehicle.
- Vehicle Transfer Notifications – This will allow vehicle sellers to file
a motor vehicle transfer notification online for free. This helps remove
your liability from any criminal activity and violations the new owner may
commit with the vehicle.
Module 2: Electronic Titles for Lien Holders
This module will create electronic titles for lien holders, which will
automatically remove the lien from the title when the vehicle is paid off. The
module will electronically assign and remove a lien on your title.
