Privately owned armored military combat vehicles unfit for licensing in Kansas

Reading the definition in Bill 2805, while anything made for the US military forces is an "historic military vehicle", anything that was not, is not. A CMP, despite looking for all the world like a military vehicle, would, in Kansa, be a 'special interest vehicle". I'm sure that's not what the drafters meant to say (if an American MV is dangereous and needs to be regulated, than all MV's should be equally dangerous and regulated). Is it possible the drafters of this legislation are so...slow...that they think the USA is the only user of MV's?

You're quite right Bruce. I just read KS Bill 2805 and my CMP would not be classified as a Historic Military Vehicle but as a Special Interest Vehicle. While the licencing requirements would be the same, I and my CMP wouldn't have any of the prohibitions of a vehicle manufactured for the U.S. Military. I could drive 24 and 7, anywhere and any time I wanted. If they enact this clumsy and silly legislation, I'm going to trailer my CMP to Kansas and drive circles around their State legislature!



CHIMO!
