of any motor vehicle determined to be in violation of Section 32-7A-4, including any motor
vehicle operated in violation of Section 32-7A-16 by an operator other than the owner of the

45-37-200.03
Section 45-37-200.03 Issuance of motor vehicle or boat registrations; fees; disposition of
funds. (a) The Legislature finds that Jefferson County has reduced the number of locations
where the citizens of Jefferson County may be issued their motor vehicle registrations due
to the financial difficulties of the county resulting in impediments to the citizens and to
the collection of state and local taxes and fees. The Legislature further finds that there
is a substantial local need to provide additional and supplemental means for the issuance
of motor vehicle registrations in Jefferson County in response to a demonstrated local need
in the county. The Legislature further finds that citizens often desire to register their
boats at the same time that they register their motor vehicles, and therefore, citizens should
be able to register their boats at the same locations where they register their motor vehicles
as a matter of public convenience. (b) In Jefferson County, the mayor of any city...
