OH SB331

Amends Ohio Revised Code sections 4501.01 and 4503.181 to add "high-mobility multipurpose wheeled vehicle manufactured for military purposes" to the definition of "historical motor vehicle."

A historical motor vehicle under Ohio law is defined as a vehicle over twenty-five years old owned solely as a collector's item for club activities, exhibitions, tours, and parades, but not for general transportation.

Allows military-manufactured high-mobility vehicles to qualify as historical vehicles regardless of age, in addition to the standard twenty-five-year-old requirement.

Historical motor vehicles are subject to a $10 annual license fee instead of the standard annual license tax, and must comply with usage restrictions limiting operation to non-general transportation purposes.

Vehicle owners must execute an affidavit confirming the vehicle has been inspected and found safe, and may display either a historical vehicle license plate or a model year plate.
