A. Registration of Vehicles Added to Fleets.
				Vehicles acquired by a registrant after the commencement of the registration
				year may be added to the proportionally registered fleet by applying the
				mileage percentage used in the original application for registration of the
				fleet for the registration period to the regular registration fees applicable
				to the additional vehicles for the remainder of the registration year.
				Applications for proportional registration of additional fleet vehicles shall
				be filed and processed in the same manner as the original application, using
				supplemental registration forms furnished by the Administration.
B. Withdrawal and Replacement of Vehicles
				from Fleets. The following shall apply to the withdrawal of a vehicle from a
				proportionally registered fleet:
(1) If a
				vehicle is withdrawn from a proportionally registered fleet during the period
				for which it is registered, the registrant shall so notify the Administration
				on the appropriate form.
(2) If the
				registrant replaces a vehicle for one withdrawn from the fleet the registrant
				shall file a supplemental application. The Administration will issue a new cab
				card and transfer the registration for the new vehicle. Additional proportional
				fees will be required for those jurisdictions that do not allow transfer
				credit.
(3) If a vehicle is
				permanently withdrawn from a proportionally registered fleet because it has
				been destroyed, sold, or otherwise completely removed from the service of the
				registrant, the fees paid with respect to the vehicle will be applied against
				registration fees which may be payable for additions to the fleet during the
				same registration year.
(4) If a
				vehicle of an apportioned fleet is withdrawn from the fleet, the vehicle cannot
				be returned to the fleet during the same registration year except upon payment
				of a proportional registration fee for the vehicle determined in accordance
				with §A, unless the vehicle was leased and the previous lease expired 30
				days or more before the date of return to the fleet.
