Title 8 - Transportation
Subtitle 2 - Vehicles
CHAPTER 321 - MOTOR VEHICLES AND LAW OF THE ROAD
321.71A - NONOPERATIVE AIR BAGS.

        321.71A  NONOPERATIVE AIR BAGS.
         A person shall not install or reinstall for compensation,
      distribute, or sell a nonoperative air bag that is part of an
      inflatable restraint system for a motor vehicle if the person knows
      that the air bag is nonoperative.  A violation of this section is an
      aggravated misdemeanor punishable by confinement for up to one year
      and a fine of at least five hundred dollars but not more than five
      thousand dollars.
         For purposes of this section, "nonoperative air bag" includes
      an air bag that has been previously deployed, is nonfunctional, or is
      otherwise defective.  "Nonoperative air bag" also includes
      anything that is inserted, or is intended to be inserted, in place of
      an air bag, which would prohibit an inflatable restraint system from
      functioning properly.
