The Corporation Commission is authorized to issue temporary permits or authorization for any vehicle to be proportionally registered in this state or which is currently proportionally registered in this state under the provisions of the International Registration Plan. Temporary permits may be issued for vehicles added to the fleet, duplicate cab cards, corrected cab cards, replacement license plates, adding jurisdictions, and weight increases to established accounts in good standing. New accounts may be issued temporary permits only after all fees are paid. Such temporary permit or authorization shall authorize a vehicle to be driven on the public roads of this state pending completion by the Corporation Commission of an application for proportional registration of such vehicle. The temporary permit or authorization shall be recognized in lieu of registration in this state. The temporary permit or authorization shall clearly indicate the date of issuance and the date of expiration, which shall be forty-five (45) days, including the day of issuance. The Corporation Commission may enter into reciprocal agreements with other states for recognition of temporary permits or authorizations.
The Corporation Commission may assign the temporary permits or authorization to registrants subject to proportional registration and such registrants may issue the temporary permits or authorization as needed for the operation of vehicles that will be operated as a fleet of proportionally registered vehicles.
Registrants shall be accountable for all temporary permits or authorization assigned to them by the Corporation Commission and shall be subject to audit by the Corporation Commission.
The Corporation Commission may enter into an agreement with any person located within or without the state for the distribution and issuance of temporary permits or authorizations for any vehicle which is currently proportionally registered in this state under the provisions of the International Registration Plan when the Corporation Commission determines that such agreement is in the best interest of the state. Any such person or corporation shall be accountable for all temporary permits or authorizations assigned to them by the Corporation Commission and shall be subject to audit by the Corporation Commission.
The phrase "currently proportionally registered", as used in this section, shall be defined as any prorate account for which a properly completed original application has been received by the Corporation Commission and all corresponding and assessed fees have been paid in full.
Self-issue temporary permits or authorizations may be issued to a maximum of twenty-five percent (25%) of the size of the registrant's fleet, and any registrant with a fleet of fewer than six vehicles may be assigned one self-issue permit.
An application shall be filed with the Corporation Commission within fifteen (15) days to proportionally register any vehicle for which a temporary permit or authorization has been issued.
Any registrant that has entered into such an agreement with the Corporation Commission, that is unable to produce, or refuses to produce, upon request by the Corporation Commission, any unissued temporary permit or authorization assigned to such registrant, shall be subject to the following penalty:
A fee of One Hundred Eighty Dollars ($180.00) which is an amount equal to the fee for the number of seventy-two-hour temporary permits, provided for in Section 1124 of this title, that would be required for the operation of a vehicle for a forty-five-day period.
If, as the result of an audit, it is determined that any registrant that has entered into such an agreement with the Corporation Commission has used temporary permits or authorizations to avoid payment of proportional registration fees, all remaining unissued temporary permits or authorizations in the possession of such registrant that has entered into such an agreement with the Corporation Commission shall be returned to the Corporation Commission, and the Corporation Commission may deny further use of temporary permits or authorizations by such registrant that has entered into such an agreement with the Corporation Commission for a minimum period of six (6) months.
