(c) If record keeping indicates that a vehicle was used solely in farm-exempt operations for a series of consecutive days and it is determined that the vehicle was used in a for-hire capacity at any point during that period of time, all miles recorded in the series of days may be assessed as taxable;

(d) Failure to maintain records accounting for both farm-exempt and for-hire operations may result in penalties under OAR 740-055-0100, suspension of the Class 1A permit, and all miles traveled may be assessed as taxable.
