Re: Kei truck street legal on public road.
Here in Washington you can get them licensed as a "Farm Vehicle" but this only works if you are country folk. For some reason the state won't go for you having a farm in the city.

Re: Kei truck street legal on public road.
We use those trucks around the lake in Missouri. I don't know the laws but I was told Japan has a national law that those trucks are no longer street legal after X number of miles. So they ship the trucks here to get the best price out of them after they are used.veedubh20 wrote:Some states has passed law to drive japanese kei truck on public road ...

Re: Kei truck street legal on public road.
In Michigan, with enough determination, almost anything can be made street legal. The UPS guy that delivers to the store I work at just got the paperwork through and now has a registered, street legal golf cart. He got a vin number assigned and everything. He had to equip it with all the lights and other basic safety features of a car, but that's not really that long of a list.
