inadvertently inserted twice in subsection (1) of this statute: "The Motor Vehicle
Commission established in KRS 190.058 shall be attached to the Department of
Vehicle Regulation for administrative purposes." This manifest clerical or
typographical error has been corrected during codification by the Reviser of Statutes
under the authority of KRS 7.136(1)(h). Legislative Research Commission Note (6/25/2009). This section was amended by 2009 Ky. Acts ch. 12 and 13, which do not appear to be in conflict and have been codified
together. Legislative Research Commission Note (12/1/2000). The contingency on the effectiveness of this statute set by 2000 Ky. Acts ch. 417, sec. 18, was met, the voters
of the Commonwealth having ratified at the general election on November 7, 2000, a
constitutional amendment (see 2000 Ky. Acts ch. 399) abolishing the Railroad
Commission.
