Hawaii Governor David Ige vetoed legislation (H.B. 323) that would have allowed for the titling and registration of former military vehicles. The bill unanimously passed both chambers of the legislature.

The bill defined a former military vehicle as a Pinzgauer, Kaiser Jeep M715, Humvee or DUKW (Duck) that is 25 years old or older.

In announcing his intent to veto the legislation, Governor Ige explained that he believed the bill would result in vehicles that do not conform to emissions and federal safety standards operating on Hawaii’s roadways.
