of the inspection. The licensed operator may be held liable for any
damages to the vehicle caused by the negligent acts or omissions in
the performance of the inspection. Any person may be liable for any
damages to a vehicle caused by the intentional acts or omissions in

shall also reflect that the vehicle was a salvage vehicle, flood-
damaged vehicle or recovered-theft vehicle, if applicable, and also

documented cost of repairing the vehicle for safe operation on the
highway does not exceed sixty percent (60%) of the fair market value
of the vehicle as provided by this section.
K. When the insurance company pays a loss on a vehicle which is
registered at the time of mishap, accident, burning, or flooding,
ENR. S. B. NO. 1108 Page 76
the appropriate certificate of title shall be issued without the
payment of additional registration fees or excise taxes, upon the

owner or insured of the requirements of this section.

ENR. S. B. NO. 1108 Page 87
commercial trailer, or semitrailer. The fee of Four Dollars ($4.00)
shall be due and payable on January 1 of each year on any frac tank,
construction machinery, rental trailer, commercial trailer, or
semitrailer registered under this section.
Upon the payment of the registration fee of Forty Dollars
($40.00), a nonexpiring registration certificate and identification
plate shall be issued for each frac tank, construction machinery,
rental trailer, commercial trailer, or semitrailer. The nonexpiring
identification plate shall remain displayed on the frac tank,
construction machinery, rental trailer, commercial trailer, or
semitrailer for which the identification plate is issued until such

operated by a resident of this state, or is being operated by a
person operating a vehicle or vehicles domiciled in this state and
required by law to be licensed in Oklahoma, unless the pulling truck
or truck-tractor has been licensed pursuant to this section or is
twenty-four thousand (24,000) pounds or less and operating under a
valid temporary license plate provided by Section 1137.1 or 1137.3
of this title. In no event shall any truck, truck-tractor, frac

the highways of this state or register at a smaller license fee than
that prescribed in this section except as provided in this section.
D. For each fiscal year, notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 1104 of this title, the first Four Hundred Thousand Dollars
ENR. S. B. NO. 1108 Page 88
($400,000.00) of all monies collected pursuant to subsections A, B,
and C of this section shall be paid by the Tax Commission Service
Oklahoma to the State Treasurer of the State of Oklahoma who shall
deposit same each fiscal year, or such lesser amount as may accrue
each fiscal year, under the provisions of this section to the credit
of the General Revenue Fund of the State Treasury. All monies
collected in excess of Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000.00)
each fiscal year shall be apportioned as provided in Section 1104 of
this title.
E. If any vehicle is used for a purpose other than that for
which it has been registered, the owner of the vehicle shall be
required to immediately reregister the vehicle at the appropriate
rate. If any vehicle is placed or operated upon any street, road,
or highway of this state with a laden weight in excess of that for
which it is licensed, the license fee for such increased laden
weight shall become due, and the owner of the vehicle shall be
required to immediately reregister the vehicle at the increased
rate. Provided, that in either event there shall be credited upon
the increased license fee for such reregistration for any portion of
the year or period remaining after the change in use or increase in
laden weight shall have occurred a proportionate part of the license
fees previously paid. If this reregistration is made voluntarily by
the owner, the ratable proportion of the credit allowed shall be
determined as of the date the reregistration is voluntarily made.
If the reregistration is not voluntarily made but occurs as a result
of the discovery by any enforcement officer of an improper operation
of the vehicle, that shall be considered prima facie evidence that
it has been improperly registered for the entire portion of the year
covered by the improper registration. Provided further, that the
ratable credit shall be allowed only on the first reregistration of
any vehicle during any calendar year. If, during the calendar year,
subsequent changes of license plate are desired, the ratable credit
shall not be allowed but the owner of the vehicle shall be required
to pay the license fee due for that portion of the calendar year
remaining without benefit of any additional credits. No owner of a
motor vehicle shall possess at any time more than one license plate
for any vehicle owned by such person. No reregistration shall be
made until the current license plate previously issued has been
surrendered.
ENR. S. B. NO. 1108 Page 89
Any person who has paid a fee under the terms and provisions of
this subsection may at any time within one (1) year after the
payment of such fee file with the Tax Commission Service Oklahoma or
the Corporation Commission a claim under oath for refund stating the
grounds therefor. However, the Tax Commission Service Oklahoma or
the Corporation Commission shall allow refunds only where the amount
of tax paid has been erroneously computed or determined through
clerical errors or miscalculations. No refund shall be allowed by
the Tax Commission Service Oklahoma or the Corporation Commission of
a tax paid by the person where such payment is made through a
mistake as to the legal misinterpretation or construction of the
provisions of this section. Any refunds made by the Tax Commission
Service Oklahoma or the Corporation Commission pursuant to this
subsection shall be made out of any monies collected pursuant to
this subsection and which have not been apportioned.
F. The annual license fee required by this section is intended
to cover only the motor vehicle for which it is issued. The Tax
Commission Service Oklahoma or the Corporation Commission upon
application, when a licensed truck-tractor has been destroyed by
fire or accident, shall credit the unused portion of the annual
license fee of the vehicle toward the license fee of a replacement
vehicle of equal registered weight. The amount of credit shall not
exceed the license fee due on the replacement vehicle. The Tax
Commission Service Oklahoma or the Corporation Commission shall not
be required to make a refund. If the replacement vehicle is to be
registered at a greater weight, the applicant shall pay an
additional sum equivalent to the difference between the unused
portion of the annual license fee for the original motor vehicle and
the license fee due for the replacement motor vehicle.
G. The license fees provided for in this section shall be paid
each year whether or not the vehicle is operated on the public
highway.
H. Notwithstanding the provision of any other statute in
respect to the time for payment of license fees on motor vehicles,
if the total amount of the annual license fees due from any resident
owner, either individual, partnership, or Oklahoma corporation, upon
the registration, on or before January 15 of any year, of commercial
trucks, truck-tractors, frac tanks, construction machinery, trailers
or semitrailers exceeds the sum of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00),
ENR. S. B. NO. 1108 Page 90
the license fees may be paid in equal semiannual installments. The
first installment shall be paid at the time of the application for
registration of the vehicles and not later than January 15 of each
year, and the second installment shall be paid on or before the
first day of July of such year.
This subsection shall not operate to reduce the amount of the
license fees due. If any installment is not paid on or before the
date due, all unpaid installments of license fees for such year on
each vehicle shall be deemed delinquent and immediately due and
payable, and there shall be added a penalty of twenty-five cents
($0.25) per day to the balance of the license fee due on each
vehicle for each day the balance remains unpaid up to thirty (30)
days, after which the penalty due on each vehicle shall be Twenty-
five Dollars ($25.00). The penalty for vehicles registered by
weight in excess of eight thousand (8,000) pounds shall be an amount
equal to the license fee. On and after the thirtieth day each such
vehicle involved shall be considered as improperly licensed and as
not currently registered, and all of the provisions of the Oklahoma
Vehicle License and Registration Act relating to enforcement,
including the provisions for the seizure and sale of vehicles not
registered and not displaying current license plates, shall apply to
the vehicles.
All fees and taxes levied by the Oklahoma Vehicle License and

agency which seized it or some other agency designated
by the court, or
c. the property be sold at public sale.

or motor or vessel or motor part, its color, if any, the date, time
and place of its seizure, the name of the person from whose
possession or control it was seized, the grounds for its seizure,

or motor or vessel or motor part shall be deposited in the General
Revenue Fund of the state, or treasury of the governmental unit
ENR. S. B. NO. 1108 Page 195
employing the seizing agency after deduction of any reasonable and
necessary towing and storage charges.
P. Seizing agencies shall utilize their best efforts to arrange
for the towing and storing of vessels or motors and vessel or motor
parts in the most economical manner possible. In no event shall the
owner of a vessel or motor or a vessel or motor part be required to
pay more than the minimum reasonable costs of towing and storage.
Q. A seized vessel or motor or vessel or motor part that is
neither forfeited nor unidentifiable shall be held subject to the
order of the court in which the criminal action is pending or, if a
request for its release from such custody is made, until the
district attorney has notified the defendant or the defendant’s
attorney of such request and both the prosecution and defense have
been afforded a reasonable opportunity for an examination of the
property to determine its true value and to produce or reproduce, by
photographs or other identifying techniques, legally sufficient
evidence for introduction at trial or other criminal proceedings.
Upon expiration of a reasonable time for the completion of the
examination, which in no event shall exceed fourteen (14) days from
the date of service upon the defense of the notice of request for
return of property as provided herein, the property shall be
released to the person making such request after satisfactory proof
of such person’s entitlement to the possession thereof.

notice to the other, the court may order retention of the property
if it determines that retention is necessary in the furtherance of
justice.

owner, or disposed of as unidentifiable, the seizing agency shall
retain a report of the transaction for a period of at least one (1)
year from the date of the transaction.

certificate presents to the Oklahoma Tax Commission Service Oklahoma
proof that the applicant purchased or acquired a vessel or motor at
a public sale conducted pursuant to this section and such fact is
attested to by the seizing agency, the Oklahoma Tax Commission
Service Oklahoma shall issue a certificate of title, salvage
certificate for the vessel or motor upon receipt of the statutory
ENR. S. B. NO. 1108 Page 196
fee, properly executed application for a certificate of title, or
other certificate of ownership, and the affidavit of the seizing
agency that a state-assigned number was applied for and affixed to
the vessel or motor prior to the time that the vessel or motor was
released by the seizing agency to the purchaser.
