Several bills introduced in Hawaii in 2017 failed to be approved by both houses of the legislature prior to the adjournment of the session. Each is eligible for consideration during the 2018 legislative session. Among these bills were legislation to provide that no motor vehicle muffler or exhaust system shall emit a noise level greater than 60 decibels; a series of bills to exempt antique motor vehicles from the state’s vehicle weight tax, reduce the weight tax for all other vehicles and decrease annual registration fees; and legislation to increase annual registration fees, increase the gas tax and increase the motor vehicle weight tax.
