It goes into the definition, it says nothing shall prohibit the Tax commission from issuing titles to certain vehicles, or for mini trucks registered pursuant to Section 3 of this act. Section 3 says the Tax Commission will promulgates rules for titling and registration of mini trucks. That section also goes on to say mini-trucks shall not be permitted to travel upon any highway that is part of the National System of Interstates and Defense Highway.
This amendment provides for registration of mini-trucks, provides for certain operation of mini-trucks; providing for codification;and providing an effective date.( their words).
In simple English, the state saw that mini-trucks needed to be dealt with on a state level, and this vehicle could not be driven on any federal highway. AND the Tax Comission had to come up with rules for registering them ( not in this amendment). This amendment went into effect last November 1st.
In California, Special Equipment licenses are how they handle special use vehicles and are still refining the details for NEVs (Neighborhood Electric Vehicles).
I read the bill. And read your post. You "wrote off road only" the bill states they can't be driven on the interstate or the defense highway which is the same thing just what it was called back Eisenhower introduced it here in Kansas. Which is only four roads in Kansas and I think three in Oklahoma. But they are still tagged and they still can drive on highways like 77 - 66.
