(3)Disclose in the description of the shared motor vehicle on the peer–to–peer car sharing program’s website the information provided under item

(4)Notify the shared vehicle owner of the requirements under subsection
(b)of this section.
(1)A shared vehicle owner may not make a motor vehicle available as a shared motor vehicle on a peer–to–peer car sharing program if the motor vehicle is older than 10 years unless the shared vehicle owner has obtained a valid State inspection certificate for the motor vehicle no earlier than 90 days before making the shared motor vehicle available as a shared motor vehicle.
