In one paragraph

Nevada's SB 382 (2025) would have let trailers used primarily for farm purposes be registered for five years (paying all five years of fees and taxes up front) and would have let an autonomous vehicle tested or operated on a Nevada highway have automated driving system marker lamps meeting SAE J3134 and SAE J578. It passed the Senate 21-0 on April 22 and, as amended, the Assembly 42-0 on June 2, 2025; the record then shows 'No further action taken' (June 3) and no enactment, so it died with the 2025 session.

What it means for business

None: the bill did not become law. The marker lamps were permitted, not required; it would not have forced autonomous vehicle operators to add them.
