CHAPTER 141
(HB 1256)
The requirements for the sale of new or used vehicles, revised.
FOR AN ACT ENTITLED, An Act to revise certain provisions regarding the sale of new or
used vehicles and the sale of certain emergency vehicles.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF SOUTH DAKOTA:
Section 1. That § 32-6B-4 be amended to read as follows:
32-6B-4. No person may engage in the business, either exclusively or in addition to any
other occupation, of selling, or may offer offering to sell, display, or advertise the sale of or
displaying new or used vehicles, without a license as provided in § 32-6B-12. A violation of this
section is a Class 2 misdemeanor.
The term, offering to sell, as used in this section, does not mean traditional advertising.
However, the term includes the physical presence in this state of a new or used vehicle offered
for sale by a person not exempt pursuant to the provisions of § 32-6B-5. For an emergency
vehicle dealer, as defined by § 32-6B-1, the term includes the submission of a bid proposal for
the sale of a vehicle if the bid proposal is offered in response to a bid request originating in this
state.
