Will my 5$ Moped tabs be increased to 30$

greenspun.com : LUSENET : I-695 Thirty Dollar License Tab Initiative : One Thread

I live in a small town. I drive an old truck during the winter and a 48cc moped all the rest of the year. When I bought the moped from the dealer,I found out that motorcycles were any bike with 50cc's of more. My moped fell in a legal gray area, and my tabs on the new bike were something like 7$. My question is: If my moped does not fit the Washingtons state legal definition of a motorcycle, will my tabs go up to $30?.

P.S. I pay something like $4.75 a year for tabs on it now, which I consider reasonable.

I-695 only changed the licensing fee's for the general class of vehicles. Your moped will continue to license for the reduced fee. However I-695 takes away the excise tax.
