[§286-47.2]  Certificate of trailer
registration.  Upon the registration of a trailer, the director of finance
shall issue a certificate of registration to the owner, dealer, or manufacturer
of the trailer.  The certificate shall meet the following requirements:



(1)  It shall contain upon the face thereof, the date
it was issued, the license plate number assigned to the vehicle, the vehicle
identification number of the vehicle, the name and address of the registered
owner of the vehicle, and such description of the registered vehicle as may be
required by the director of finance.  If any of the information subsequently
proves to be incorrect due to a typographical error, the dealer, manufacturer,
or owner of the trailer shall notify the director of finance of the error by a
written certificate stating the reasons for and nature of the error and the
correction that should be made on the certificate of registration.  Upon
receipt of such notification by the director of finance, the certificate of
registration shall be corrected accordingly so long as the correction does not
constitute a change of the vehicle originally registered.  A fee shall be paid
to the director of finance for each instance of correction of the registration
records.  The fee charged for each instance of correction of the registration
records shall be established by the county's legislative body.



(2)  In addition to the requirements provided for in
paragraph (1), the face of the certificate of registration shall contain
endorsement lines for the transfer of interest of the registered owner of the
trailer.



(3)  Every owner of a trailer, except for those
trailers owned by a company or person operating under the jurisdiction of the
public utilities commission, shall carry the certificate of registration with
the trailer and shall present the certificate at the request of a police
officer.  This requirement to carry the certificate of registration with the
trailer shall not apply when the certificate is removed for the purpose of
application for renewal, transfer of registration, or to record a change in the
registration.



(4)  The director of finance shall not issue a
certificate of ownership for a trailer nor record any liens upon or legal
ownership to the trailer. [L 1985, c 27, pt of §1]
