For purposes of this rule, a GVW Vehicle is deemed to be used in the operations of a common or contract carrier for hire if the vehicle transported any cargo not owned by the carrier for fifty percent or more of the total miles traveled by that vehicle within the Registration Period Mileage Cycle pursuant to 42-3-306(5)(b)(II), C.R.S.a. Whether a GVW Vehicle is used in the operations of a common or contract carrier for hire may be established by submitting documentation at the time of registration proving ownership of all cargo carried for the miles traveled by that vehicle within the previous Registration Period Mileage Cycle. Documentation may be bills of sale, manufacturing documentation, or other documents deemed acceptable by the Department.b. A GVW Vehicle registered for the first time that does not have documentation proving carrier type or mileage history will be registered as a common or contract carrier for hire travelling ten thousand miles or more. Upon registration renewal, if it is demonstrated that the GVW Vehicle is not a common or contract carrier and/or travelled less than ten thousand miles during the Registration Period Mileage Cycle, the registrant may request that the Department credit the difference between the registration fees paid and the renewal registration fees towards the renewal registration fees. If not renewing registration, a refund of the excess registration fee may be requested by submitting a request for refund to the Department on form DR 2444 Statement of Fact with supporting documentation.2.2 Replacing a GVW Vehicle. A GVW Vehicle owner who is replacing an existing GVW Vehicle may use the Mileage History of the GVW Vehicle being replaced as qualification for the registration fees assessed on the new GVW Vehicle.
