Section 11 CSR 50-2.110 - [Effective 1/29/2025] Issuance of Inspection Stickers and Decals

PURPOSE: This rule establishes uniform procedures for inspection station operators and inspector/mechanics to follow when issu- ing inspection stickers and decals. These pro- cedures are necessary to insure proper accountability and a record of each sticker and decal issued.

(1) An inspection sticker or decal shall be issued immediately following an inspection or reinspection if the vehicle meets the inspection requirements. The sticker or decal shall immediately be properly affixed to the vehicle by the inspector/mechanic who performed the inspection or reinspection.

(2) When an inspection sticker is issued, the inspector/ mechanic shall legibly complete the information required on the reverse side of the inspection sticker. Previous inspection stickers affixed to the windshield shall be removed. The inspector/mechanic shall affix the current inspection sticker on the inside of the vehicle's windshield in the lower left-hand corner. On motor vehicles not equipped with a windshield, the inspector/mechanic shall issue a properly validated inspection decal and affix it to the vehicle's dash or steering column.

(3) Location for placement of decals.

(A) When an inspection decal is issued for a motorcycle or motor tricycle, it shall be affixed in an upright position on the left side of the steering fork sleeve at a visible location near the slider tube. When such location is not available, the decal shall be affixed in an upright position to the frame in a visible location on the front left side of the vehicle.

(4) Stations will issue inspection stickers or decals from only one (1) book at a time, starting with their lowest numbered book.

(5) All covers from used books of both stickers and decals will be retained by the inspection station.

(6) Inspection stickers or decals issued to an inspection station can be used only by that station.
