Motor driven vehicle, defined for section 407.815
This law explains what counts as a 'motor vehicle' for certain Missouri consumer protection rules about vehicle sales. Trailers are not included in the definition of 'motor vehicle.' Recreational vehicles were also given special treatment — before August 1, 2002, some rules did not apply to recreational vehicle dealers or manufacturers, and after August 1, 2002, recreational vehicles are fully left out of the 'motor vehicle' definition in those rules.
