LAUREL COUNTY, Ky. (FOX 56) — Laurel County officials took to social media on Friday to celebrate a historic occasion after the passing of a new state law.
Sheriff John Root posted on Facebook just after 11 a.m. on Friday, June 27, that his friend was the first state resident to legally register his special purpose vehicle (SPV) after going through the inspection process with the Laurel County Sheriff’s Office (LCSO) and filing the proper paperwork with the county clerk.
“This legislation is expected to boost the economy in counties with events or trail riding, hopefully benefiting local restaurants, stores, and motels,” Sheriff Root wrote.
County officials noted that the law does not apply to tractors, four-wheelers, or off-road vehicles used for agricultural purposes.
According to Senate Bill 63, residents can register with their county clerk’s office for a $10 fee after getting the street-legal ATV, UTV, mini-truck, or pneumatic-tired military vehicle inspected by the local sheriff’s office. The vehicle must also be insured, per the LCSO.
More information about the new law can be found at the Kentucky General Assembly’s website. For more information on vehicle registration, reach out to your local county clerk’s office or visit drive.ky.gov.
