A. In lieu of annual registration, the director shall provide for the registration
of fleet utility trailers for five year periods on proper application by the owner of the
trailers. The owner is subject to all fees and license taxes imposed by this title and
shall pay the fees and taxes as if the trailers were registered annually.

shall contain a proportional number of the trailers equal to the average number and the

calendar year.

pursuant to this section to annually file on a form to be supplied by the department for

through this state during the preceding calendar year. If in any year subsequent to the
first year of registration the average number or assessed value of the trailers
increases, the director may require the owner to register additional trailers for the
remainder of the five year period.
D. The director may cancel at any time any or all of the license plates and
registration cards issued to the owner of fleet utility trailers registered pursuant to
this section for nonpayment of registration fees or license taxes or for noncompliance
with subsection C.

utility trailer fleet consisting of two hundred fifty or more trailers with a gross
weight of less than six thousand pounds.
