§17B-2-7c. Motorcycle license examination fund.
On and after July 1, 2007, any unexpended balance remaining in the Motorcycle License Examination Fund heretofore created shall be transferred to the Motor Vehicle Fees Fund created under the provisions of section twenty-one, article two, chapter seventeen-a of this code. The fund shall include all moneys received from fees collected for motorcycle instruction permits under this article and any other moneys specifically allocated to the fund.
If any person willfully fails or refuses to return to the division the evidences of the registration, title, permit or license that have been canceled, suspended or revoked, or any dealer special plates, when obligated so to do as provided in this section, the commissioner shall immediately notify the superintendent of the State Police who shall, as soon as possible, secure possession of the evidences of registration, title, permit or license or any special dealer plates and return it to the division. The Superintendent of the State Police shall make a report in writing to the commissioner, within two weeks after being notified by the commissioner, as to the result of his or her efforts to secure the possession and return of the evidences of registration, title, permit or license, or any dealer special plates.
For each registration, certificate of title, registration card, registration plate or plates, temporary registration plate or marker, permit, license certificate or dealer special plate, which the owner, holder or other person in possession of the registration, title, permit or license or any special dealer plates shall have willfully failed or refused, as provided in this section, to return to the division within ten days from the time that the cancellation, suspension or revocation becomes effective, and which has been certified to the superintendent of the State Police as specified in this section, the owner or holder shall, before the registration, title, permit or license or any special dealer plates may be reinstated, if reinstatement is permitted, in addition to all other fees and charges, pay a fee of $15, which shall be collected by the Division of Motor Vehicles, paid into the State Treasury and credited to the General Fund to be appropriated to the State Police for application in the enforcement of the road laws.
A total of $25 may be collected on each reinstatement for each vehicle to which any cancellation, suspension or revocation relates: Provided, That when any motor vehicle registration is suspended for failure to maintain motor vehicle liability insurance the reinstatement fee is $100 and if the vehicle owner fails to surrender the vehicle registration and the orders go to the State Police, an additional fee of $50 shall be required before the motor vehicle registration may be reinstated. A total of $150 may be collected on each reinstatement of any motor vehicle registration canceled, suspended or revoked for failure to maintain motor vehicle liability insurance.
