(a) The owner or operator of any motor vehicle using the highways of this State or the owner or operator of any boat using the waters of this State transporting into, out of or between points in this State any gasoline or liquid motor fuel taxable in this State and/or any liquid petroleum product that is or may hereafter be made subject to inspection laws of this State shall make application to the Commissioner of Agriculture on forms to be provided by him for a liquid fuel carrier's permit.

Said numbered liquid fuel carrier's permit shall show the motor number and license number of the motor vehicle and number or name of boat, and shall be prominently displayed on the motor vehicle or boat at all times.
(b)	This Section shall not be construed to include the carrying of motor fuel in the supply tank of a vehicle when said supply tank is regularly connected with the carburetor of the engine of the vehicle, if said vehicle is operated by a franchise carrier engaged solely in the transportation of passengers to, from and between points in North Carolina, or if said supply tank has a capacity of one hundred (100) gallons or less.
(c)	Any person violating any of the provisions of this Section shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction shall be fined not more than twenty-five dollars ($25.00) for each offense."
