(a) An owner engaged in operating a fleet in this state in
interstate commerce may, in lieu of registration of such fleet
under the
provisions of K.S.A. 8-126 to 8-149, inclusive, and amendments thereto,
register such fleet for
operation in this
state upon payment of
fees prescribed by this act and the filing of an application with the division
of vehicles in a manner and upon a form prescribed by the
division, or
in accordance with the provisions of any apportioned fleet
registration
agreement made by this state. The application shall be signed by the owner,
if an individual, or an officer or proper representative of an entity other
than an individual, and such application shall contain the following and
any other information pertinent to the registration of a fleet as the division
of vehicles may require: (1) Name and base address of the owner of the fleet;
(2) total fleet miles; and (3) a description of each fleet vehicle by year
of manufacture, name of manufacturer, the identification or serial number,
the declared gross weight of each motor vehicle, and the number of axles
under each listed fleet vehicle.
(b) Fleet vehicles so registered shall be determined to be fully licensed
and registered in this state, and shall be exempt from further registration
and license fees under the provisions of K.S.A. 8-126 to 8-149, inclusive, and
amendments thereto, but nothing in this
act shall be deemed to relieve
any owner of fleet vehicles operated in intrastate commerce in this state,
from any duty to register and operate in conformity with requirements of
the state corporation commission.
(c) If so authorized by any bilateral or multijurisdictional agreement
lawfully entered into by the director of vehicles, the director may collect
and forward applicable registration fees and applications to other
jurisdictions
and may take such other action on behalf of the applicant or another
jurisdiction
as will facilitate the administration of such agreements, including deposits
for the state of Kansas and disbursal of refunds. Amounts collected under such
agreements shall be remitted by the director to the state treasurer
in accordance with the provisions of K.S.A. 75-4215, and
amendments thereto. Upon receipt of each such remittance, the
state treasurer shall deposit the entire amount in the state treasury to the
credit of the international registration
plan clearing fund.
Payments due and owing to member jurisdictions under any bilateral or
multijurisdictional agreement and refunds for overpayment of fees shall be made
from such fund. The director shall reconcile such clearing fund balances
monthly and
transfer the balance to the state highway fund. The funds shall be invested in
the same manner as provided in K.S.A. 68-2324, and amendments thereto, and all
earnings shall be deposited in the state treasury and credited to the state
highway fund.
