This bill amends various sections of Minnesota Statutes related to the registration and operation of collector vehicles, including collector's vehicles, classic cars, and military vehicles. Key changes include the requirement for vehicle owners to register their collector vehicles and pay a $25 tax and plate fee, as specified in section 168.12. The bill introduces a new subdivision (5) that clarifies the operation of registered collector vehicles, allowing them to be used for specific activities such as exhibitions and parades, but not for general transportation purposes. Additionally, it mandates that vehicle owners provide an affidavit confirming their vehicle's status as a collector's item and compliance with registration requirements.

The bill also makes technical changes to existing language, replacing phrases like "shall be listed for taxation and registration" with "must be registered," and clarifying the information required in affidavits, such as the seller's name and vehicle identification number. It emphasizes that vehicles must be operated solely as collector items and outlines the conditions under which military vehicles can be registered. The effective date for all changes is set for the day following final enactment.
