Item 1

 
transporting modular homes may apply for a trailer transit license
and plate. The transit plate may not be loaned, used in place of
registration plates on another vehicle, used for personal reasons
or used on the towing vehicle. Issuance of a trailer transit
license and plate does not exempt the holder from compliance with
any state law or municipal ordinance governing the movement of
mobile homes, storage trailers, modular homes or frames for
transporting modular homes or light trailers over the highways of
this State and does not exempt the holder from required permits or
certificates prior to moving the vehicles. Trailer transit plates
issued pursuant to this subsection may only be used subject to the
following conditions.

 
A. A storage trailer must be empty during transportation.

 
B. A light trailer may be transported with a load
appropriate for the light trailer, provided that the load is
owned by or in the custody of the transporting business.

 
C. A light trailer may be transported with a trailer
transit plate only if the business owner or an employee of
the business accompanies the vehicle transporting the light
trailer.

 
Fees for trailer transit licenses and plates are established in
section 852. Trailer transit licenses are exempt from section
951, subsection 6.

 
For purposes of this subsection, "business" means a corporation,
firm, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship or other
commercial entity. For the purposes of this subsection, "modular
home" has the same meaning as in Title 30-A, section 4358,
subsection 1, paragraph A, subparagraph (2).

 
Emergency clause. In view of the emergency cited in the preamble,
this Act takes effect when approved.
