The event must meet all of the following conditions:
- The sale of motor vehicles is not allowed during the qualified event.
- The qualified event is conducted in a controlled area and is not open to the public generally.
- The qualified event generally promotes the motor truck industry.
- The qualified event is conducted within the area of responsibility that is specified in the motor vehicle dealer’s contract with the manufacturer or distributor.
Permits are issued for periods not to exceed 14 days.
A $10 permit fee must be received.
