The division shall provide for the registration of and the issuance of
license plates for utility
trailers in accordance with the
provisions of this section. License plates issued under this section shall be
permanent in nature and designed in such a manner as to remain with the utility
trailer for the duration of the life span of the trailer or until the trailer
is deleted from the owner's fleet. Such license plates shall be distinctive
and there shall be no year date thereon. Trailers registered under the
provisions of this section shall be issued a permanent registration cab card
for the duration of the life span of the trailer or until the trailer is
deleted from the owner's fleet. License plates issued under this section shall
not be transferable to any other utility trailer. The division shall
require the payment of
all fees imposed pursuant to this act as though such trailers were registered
annually. Every application for the registration of utility trailers shall
be accompanied by a total fee payment equal to the amount obtained by applying
the proportion of such trailers operated in this state to the total trailers
in the fleet, to the fees which would otherwise be required for total fleet
registration in this state plus the amount of fees required by this act
for the issuance of identification devices for the vehicles in the fleet.
The director shall require every owner of utility trailers registered pursuant
to this act to file an annual statement each year during the period of
registration,
providing such information as the director deems necessary to determine
the amount of fees owed for such year. If, in any year subsequent to the
first year of a registration period, the number of trailers operated within
this state increases, the director shall require the owner thereof to register
such additional trailers for the remainder of the registration period.
The director may at any time cancel the registration of any or all of the
vehicles within a fleet of utility trailers for nonpayment of fees or for
failure to file or provide information required pursuant to this act.
