What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, certain vehicles operated on the highway are not required

to be registered with the Department of Transportation. These vehicles include

amphibious motor vehicles capable of carrying at least ten passengers when the

vehicle is used for sight-seeing purposes, registered as a boat with the Department

of Natural Resources, and operated on a highway for a distance of not more than two

miles.

This bill allows this vehicle registration exemption to apply to amphibious

motor vehicles that are operated on a highway for a distance of not more than five

miles, rather than two miles, if they otherwise meet the criteria described above.
