Such special vehicle identification number shall be affixed only by or under the direction of a member of the department of motor vehicles who has the powers of a peace officer pursuant to section three hundred ninety-two-b of this chapter. A fee of twenty-five dollars shall be paid to the commissioner before such number shall be issued, except that no fee shall be required of a governmental agency.
