AB340,1,2 1An Act to create 341.05 (25) of the statutes; relating to: exempting certain
2vehicles that are used primarily off a highway from vehicle registration.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, certain vehicles are exempt from vehicle registration by the
department of transportation. These vehicles include implements of husbandry,
road machinery and certain vehicles that are operated primarily off a highway or to
cross a highway.
This bill exempts from the vehicle registration requirements of this state any
engine-driven device with a gross weight of more than 650 pounds but less than
2,000 pounds that is designed to travel on 4 or more low-pressure tires, is equipped
with a cargo area and is used primarily off a highway.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
