weight rating of 10,000 pounds or less, and antique motor vehicles as defined
in section 249-1, except those in subsections (c) and (d), shall be certified
as provided in subsection (e) [every twelve months; provided that any vehicle
to which this subsection applies shall not require inspection within];
provided that:
(1) No vehicle shall require inspection

For the purposes of this section, vehicle model year shall be calculated from the last day in December of the designated model year of the vehicle."
2. By amending subsection (e) to read:
"(e) Upon application for a
certificate of inspection to be issued for a vehicle, an inspection as
prescribed by the director under subsection (g) shall be conducted on the
vehicle, and if the vehicle is found to be in a safe operating condition, a
certificate of inspection shall be issued upon payment of a fee to be
determined by the director[.]; provided that the fee for a vehicle
with a model year nine years of age or newer shall be twice that of the fee
charged for a vehicle with a model year older than nine years of age. The
certificate shall state the effective date, the termination date, the name of

or destroyed shall be replaced without reinspection by the inspection station
that issued the original inspection sticker upon presentation of the vehicle's
current certificate of inspection; provided that the current certificate of
inspection and inspection sticker shall not have expired at the time the
replacement is requested. The director shall adopt rules to determine the
fee for replacement of lost, stolen, or destroyed inspection stickers."
