41-1a-1303. Driving without registration or certificate of title -- Class B or C misdemeanor.
(1) (a) Except as provided in Subsection (2) or Section 41-1a-211, a person may not drive or move, or an owner may not knowingly permit to be driven or moved upon any highway any vehicle of a type required to be registered in this state:
(i) that is not properly registered or for which a certificate of title has not been issued or applied for; or
(ii) for which the required fee has not been paid.
(b) A violation of this Subsection (1) is a class C misdemeanor.
(2) (a) A violation of Subsection 41-1a-202(3), related to registration of vehicles after establishing residency, is a class B misdemeanor and except as provided in Subsection (2)(b), has a minimum fine of $1000.
(b) A court may not dismiss an action brought for a violation of Subsection 41-1a-202(3) merely because the defendant has obtained the appropriate registration subsequent to violating the section. The court may, however, reduce the fine to $200 if the violator presents evidence at the time of his hearing that:
(i) the vehicle is currently registered properly; and
(ii) the violation has not existed for more than one year.
(3) A court may require proof of proper motor vehicle registration as part of any sentence imposed under this section.
