Be it enacted by the Legislature of the State of Arizona:
Section 1. Section 28-2157, Arizona Revised Statutes, is amended to read:
28-2157. Application for registration; motorcycle registration requirements
A. A person shall apply to the department for registration of a motor vehicle, trailer or semitrailer on forms prescribed or authorized by the department.
B. The application shall contain:
1. The name and complete residence address of the owner.
2. A description of the vehicle, including the serial number.
3. If it is a new vehicle, the date of sale by the manufacturer or dealer to the person first operating the vehicle.
4. If the owner of the vehicle rents or intends to rent the vehicle without a driver, a statement of that fact.
5. Other facts required by the department.
C. The registering officer shall indicate on the face of the registration application that the registrant may be subject to vehicle emissions testing requirements pursuant to section 49‑542.
D. On request of an applicant, the department shall allow the applicant to provide on the registration of a motor vehicle, trailer or semitrailer a post office box address that is regularly used by the applicant and that is located in the county in which the applicant resides.
E. The person shall include with the application the required fees and the certificate of title to the vehicle for which registration is sought. The registering officer may waive the requirement that the applicant present a certificate of title at the time of making an application for renewal if the registering officer has available complete and sufficient records to accurately compute the vehicle license tax.
F. The department may request an applicant who appears in person to register a motor vehicle, trailer or semitrailer to satisfactorily complete the vision screening test prescribed by the department.
G. A person applying for initial registration of a neighborhood electric vehicle or a motorized quadricycle shall certify in writing that a notice of the operational restrictions applying to the vehicle as provided in section 28‑966 are contained on a permanent notice attached to or painted on the vehicle in a location that is in clear view of the driver.
H. In addition to all other requirements for vehicle registration, a person who registers a motorcycle must have a valid class M license or a motorcycle endorsement on the person's driver license.
