 Information

 There has been some inquiries into registration and inspection requirements for vehicles that are used on Peaks Island.  To clarify these issues please take a look at the 29A requirements that I have pasted into the email.

     The short story is that if a vehicle is registered in the State of Maine in any manner other than an Island registration, the vehicle must be inspected.  It does not matter if the vehicle is only utilized on the Island; if the car carries any State of Maine Reg. it must also have a current sticker.  If a vehicle only displays and Island registration, it does not need to be inspected.

§1751. Motor vehicle inspection

1. Inspection required.  Except as provided in this chapter or section 2307, subsection 1, a motor vehicle required to be registered in this State must have an annual inspection. A person may have a motor vehicle inspected more frequently.

§1752. Motor vehicles exempt from inspection

5. Island vehicles.  A motor vehicle that is:

A. Used for the conveyance of passengers; [1993, c. 683, Pt. A, §2 (NEW); 1993, c. 683, Pt. B, §5 (AFF).]

B. Registered for a fee of $2 under section 501, subsection 2-A; and [2001, c. 471, Pt. A, §30 (AMD).]

C. Operated exclusively on an island having no roads maintained or supported by the State;

§501. Fees for registration; motor vehicles

2-A. Island vehicles, golf carts and low-speed vehicles.  The following provisions apply to vehicles operating on islands that have no public ways maintained or supported by the State.

A. Notwithstanding subsection 1, an automobile may be registered for an annual fee of $4. A low-speed vehicle or golf cart may be registered for an annual fee of $4. The registrant must show evidence of payment of the excise tax required by Title 36, section 1482. The municipality may collect an additional $4 fee annually to defray the cost of removing abandoned vehicles or golf carts. [2001, c. 197, §4 (AMD).]
