(a) (1) Subject to paragraph (3), no dealer shall sell or offer for sale any used passenger vehicle of a model year of 1972 to 1990, inclusive, unless there is affixed to the window of the left front door or, if there is no window, to another suitable location so that it may be seen and read by a person standing outside the vehicle at that location, a notice, printed in 14-point type, which reads as follows:

“WARNING: While use of all seat belts reduces the chance of ejection, failure to install and use shoulder harnesses with lap belts can result in serious or fatal injuries in some crashes. Lap-only belts increase the chance of head and neck injury by allowing the upper torso to move unrestrained in a crash and increase the chance of spinal column and abdominal injuries by concentrating excessive force on the lower torso. Because children carry a disproportionate amount of body weight above the waist, they are more likely to sustain those injuries. Shoulder harnesses may be available that can be retrofitted in this vehicle. For more information call the Auto Safety Hotline at 1-800-424-9393.”

(2) The notice shall remain affixed to the vehicle pursuant to paragraph (1) at all times that the vehicle is for sale.

(3) The notice is not required to be affixed to any vehicle equipped with both a lap belt and a shoulder harness for the driver and one passenger in the front seat of the vehicle and for at least two passengers in the rear seat of the vehicle.

(b) (1) In addition to the requirements of subdivision (a), and subject to paragraph (3) and subdivision (c), the dealer shall affix, to one rear seat lap belt buckle of every used passenger vehicle of a model year of 1972 to 1990, inclusive, that has a rear seat, a notice, printed in 10-point type, that reads as follows:

“WARNING: While use of all seat belts reduces the chance of ejection, failure to install and use shoulder harnesses with lap belts can result in serious or fatal injuries in some crashes. Shoulder harnesses may be available that can be retrofitted in this vehicle. For more information, call the Auto Safety Hotline at 1-800-424-9393.”

(2) The notice shall remain affixed to the vehicle pursuant to paragraph (1) at all times that the vehicle is for sale.

(3) The message is not required to be affixed to any vehicle either equipped with both a lap belt and a shoulder harness for at least two passengers in the rear seat or having no rear seat lap belts.

(c) A dealer is not in violation of subdivision (b) unless a private nonprofit entity has furnished a supply of the appropriate notices suitable for affixing as required free of charge or, having requested a resupply of notices, has not received the resupply.

(d) The department shall furnish, to a nonprofit private entity for purposes of this section, for a fee not to exceed its costs in so furnishing, at least once every six months, a list of all licensed dealers who sell used passenger vehicles.

The Legislature takes notice of the existence of the Conservation Committee of California Oil Producers and of the fact that said committee for a number of years last past, in the interest of the conservation of oil and gas, has made recommendations of maximum efficient rates of production and for the intrapool distribution of such maximum efficient rates of production with respect to oil pools, capacity production from which pools would result in a loss of ultimate production. The Legislature declares that recommendations for such purpose are in the interest of the conservation of the oil and gas resources of this State and that it is lawful for said committee or any other committee of oil producers to issue such recommendations as to any such oil pool and for producers of oil to comply therewith or to agree to comply therewith, provided:

(a) Copies of all such recommendations shall be currently delivered to the supervisor and shall be open to public inspection in the office of the supervisor; and

(b) Any such committee shall make available to the supervisor its records, files, minutes, reports and other data pertaining to such recommendations.

The supervisor in his discretion may join in any such recommendations or may express his disapproval thereof.

The supervisor, in the absence of such recommendations by a committee of oil producers with respect to any of such pools, or if the supervisor deems any such recommendations to be insufficient or incorrect, may issue recommendations with respect to any such pools on said subject matter, and it shall be lawful for producers to comply therewith or to agree to comply therewith. Neither a disapproval by the supervisor nor a recommendation by him shall constitute a basis for implying any obligation for producers of oil to comply with such a disapproval or recommendation.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to permit the production of gas in violation of Articles 5 and 6 of Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 of this division.
