050 (1)(c) & WAC 308-100-210 and is NOT a COMMERCIAL VEHICLE which would require a RCW 46.25.080 COMMERCIAL DRIVERS LICENSE
RCW 46.25.050 (1) Drivers of Commercial motor vehicles shall obtain a commercial drivers license . . . HOWEVER, this requirement does not apply to any person: (c) Who is operating a recreational vehicle for non commercial purposes.
RCW 46.25.050 (1)(c) makes it clear that the alleged requirement for a drivers license does NOT apply to any person: (c) WHO IS OPERATING A RECREATIONAL VEHICLE FOR NON COMMERCIAL PURPOSES! (Emphasis added.) For clarification, the Washington Administrative Code at WAC 308-100-210 which reads:
(WAC) 308-100-210 Recreational vehicleDefinition. For the purposes of RCW 46.25.050(1)(c), the term recreational vehicle shall include vehicles used exclusively for NONCOMMERCIAL PURPOSES which are: (1) Primarily designed for recreational, camping, OR TRAVEL USE. And;
WAC 308-100-210 specifically defines the term RECREATIONAL VEHICLE shall include vehicles used exclusively for NON COMMERCIAL PURPOSES which are: (1) PRIMARILY DESIGNED FOR RECREATIONAL, CAMPING, OR TRAVEL USE. Oregon law at ORS 801.208 is consistent with both RCW 46.25.050(1)(c) & WAC 308100-210 and provides:
801.208 Commercial motor vehicle. . . . (2) Notwithstanding subsection (1) of this section, the term commercial motor vehicle does not include the following: . . . (c) A motor home used to transport or house, for nonbusiness purposes, the operator or the operators family members or personal possessions; . . . (e) A recreational vehicle that is operated solely for personal use. [1989 c.636 2; 1991 c.185 1; 1991 c.676 1; 1999 c.359 1]
Similarly, Idaho law at subsection (4) of Title 49-302 is consistent with both RCW 46.25.050(1)(c) & WAC 308-100-210 and provides:
49-302. What persons are exempt from License. The following persons are exempt from licensing ... (c) Not used in the operations of a common or contract motor carrier; and ...(4) Any person is exempt from obtaining a class A, B, or C license to operate a commercial vehicle which is exclusively used to transport personal possessions or family members for nonbusiness or recreational purposes. Privately owned Buses not engaged in for hire Transportation are outside the jurisdiction
of Division of Motor Vehicles enforcement of N.C. G.S. Article 17, Chapter 20*** 58 N.C.A.G. 1 (It follows that those Citizens not engaged in extraordinary use of the highway for profit or gain are likewise outside the jurisdiction of the Division of Motor Vehicles.) Since a sale of personal property is not required to be evidenced by any written instrument in order to be valid, it has been held in North Carolina that there may be a transfer of title to an automobile without complying with the registration statute which requires a transfer and delivery of a certificate of title. N.C. Law Review Vol. 32 page 545, Carolina Discount Corp. v. Landis Motor Co., 190 N.C. 157; 129 S.E. 414 (Sept. 30, 1925) The following shall be exempt from the requirements of registration and the certificate of title: 1.) Any such vehicle driven or moved upon the highway in conformance with the provisions of this Article relating to manufacturers, dealers, or nonresidents. 2.) Any such vehicle which is driven or moved upon a highway only for the purpose of crossing such highway from one property to another. ****20-51(1)(2) (comment: not driven or moved upon the highway for transporting persons or property for profit.) (Case note to North Carolina G.S. 12-3 Statutory Construction) A vehicle not used for commercial activity is a consumer goods, ...it is NOT a type of vehicle required to be registered and use tax paid of which the tab is evidence of receipt of the tax. Bank of Boston vs Jones, 4 UCC Rep. Serv. 1021, 236 A2d 484, UCC PP 9-109.14. It is held that a tax upon common carriers by motor vehicles is based upon a reasonable classification, and does not involve any unconstitutional discrimination, although it does not apply to private vehicles, or those used by the owner in his own business, and not for hire. Desser v. Wichita, (1915) 96 Kan. 820; Iowa Motor Vehicle Asso. v. Railroad Comrs., 75 A.L.R. 22. Thus self-driven vehicles are classified according to the use to which they are put rather than according to the means by which they are propelled. Ex Parte Hoffert, 148 NW 20. In view of this rule a statutory provision that the supervising officials may exempt such persons when the transportation is not on a commercial basis means that they must exempt them. State v. Johnson, 243 P. 1073; 60 C.J.S. section 94 page 581. See California Motor Vehicle Code, section 260: Private cars/vans etc. not in commerce / for profit, are immune to registration fees: a) A commercial vehicle is a vehicle of a type REQUIRED to be REGISTERED under this code. (b) Passenger vehicles which are not used for the transportation of persons for hire, compensation or profit, and housecars, are not commercial vehicles. (c) a vanpool vehicle is not a commercial vehicle. See New Jersey Motor Vehicle Code Chapter 3, Section 39:3-1. Certain vehicles excepted from chapter which reads: Automobile fire engines and such self propelling vehicles as are used neither for the conveyance of persons for hire, pleasure or business, nor for the transportation of freights, such as steam road rollers and traction engines are excepted from the provisions of this chapter. See Annual Report of the Attorney General of the State of New York issued on July 21, 1909, ALBANY NEW YORK, pages 322-323 which reads: There is NO requirement that the owner of a motor vehicle shall procure a license to run the same, nor is there any requirement that any other person shall do so, unless he proposes to become a chauffeur or a person conducting an automobile as an employee for hire or wages.
