The information provided here is for guidance only and should not be taken as legal advice. When in doubt, the UCR Handbook should be referenced for final say. Please contact your state's UCR Agency if you have any questions.
Note: A carrier primarily engaged in intrastate school-bus operations may ‎exempt its intrastate school buses from its fleet count.‎
Please note that this does not exempt you from registering with UCR, but does impact the fees you are obligated to pay. According to the UCR Handbook ‎‎(page 30):‎

‎"Some motor carriers or freight forwarders may operate only vehicles that are not classified as ‎commercial motor vehicles, typically because the vehicles are lighter or carry fewer passengers than ‎vehicles included in the definition of the term commercial motor vehicle. Such a business must register ‎for UCR because these entities have a federal MC number. Because the MC numbers are generated in ‎the federal URS system, a USDOT number will also be issued, but it would ordinarily pay a UCR fee in ‎the lowest bracket, because it operates no commercial motor vehicles."‎

If these lightweight vehicles pull trailers in interstate commerce and the gross combination weight ‎rating or gross combination weight is 10,001 or more, the entity will account for all of these ‎commercial motor vehicles and pay the applicable fee. ‎
