(a) Privately owned buses not operated for compensation
or hire and thus not classified and registered as "city buses" or
"motor buses" shall be registered with private bus license plates.
The "private bus" registration classification includes every motor
vehicle not operated for compensation or hire, which is designed for
carrying more than 10 passengers (excluding the driver or operator)
and used for the transportation of persons.
(b) The registration fee for a privately owned bus
shall be prorated monthly and based upon the weight of the vehicle
as calculated by Transportation Code, §502.055.
(c) The same schedule of registration fees used for
city buses shall also be used for privately owned buses, since the
fees for both classifications are computed at the same rate.
