More info on DMV rejecting registration of Military Vehicles

Many people continue to ask us “Why is the state rejecting applications to register former military vehicles”

There are two documents. One is state law. The other is the agency’s registration procedure document. Under the provisions of State Statutes the following law is applied as reason for rejection.

Chapter 341.10. Grounds for refusing registration.
The department shall refuse registration of a vehicle under any of the following circumstances:

341.10(6) Paragraph 6
The vehicle is originally designed and manufactured for off-highway operation unless the vehicle meets the provisions of s.114 of the national traffic and motor vehicle safety act of 1966, as amended, except as otherwise authorized by the statutes.

Below is the internal DMV document that has been used to guide offices on various vehicle circumstances. The “do not register” military vehicle columns are highlighted.
