TITLE: FMVSR INTERPRETATION

TEXT: In your letter of November 18 you have requested an extension beyond one year of the time permissible for two DAF55 vehicles to remain in the United States for test purposes.

These vehicles were imported pursuant to 19 C.F.R. @ 12.80(b)(2)(vii) which permits importation of vehicles which do not conform to all applicable Federal motor vehicle safety standards:

. . .for the purposes of . . . test, experiment . . [if] such vehicle will not be sold or licensed for use on the public roads: Provided, That vehicles imported solely for purposes of test or experiment may be licensed for use on the public reads for a period not to exceed one year . . . ."

The Bureau cannot grant your request for an extension of the one year period, however, the regulation does not prohibit the continue use of these vehicles on private property after the one year licensed period has expired.
