Kei trucks in Tennessee, registered for county roads and state highways at 45 mph or less

Read from Tennessee's own statutes and motor vehicle office.

Since April 2025 Tennessee has one road class for the vehicles a kei truck can be registered as, the utility terrain vehicle, and it may run on every county road and every state highway posted 45 mph or less at up to 35 mph with a driver license and a liability policy, unless the county, the town or the state has barred the road. A 25 year old truck with a top speed over 35 mph registers as a Class I off-highway vehicle, which the Department of Revenue says includes mini-trucks. A newer truck imported as off road equipment and governed to 25 mph fits only the low speed vehicle class if it meets the federal low speed standard, and otherwise works the farm and private land on a title-only.

Your lane

Which truck are you buying?

Tennessee treats the two kinds of kei truck differently. Pick yours and this answers for it.

A kei truck 25 years or older, with a top speed over 35 mph, fits the Class I off-highway vehicle class, which the Department of Revenue says includes mini-trucks. Registered at the county clerk, insured and driven by a licensed driver 16 or older, it may run on any county road and on any state highway posted 45 mph or less, at no more than 35 mph, in daylight.

Road use with limits

Title. County clerk, on proof of ownership. For a truck imported from another country the Department lists a manufacturer's statement or certificate of origin, a bill of sale, Form HS-7 and a photograph of the federal safety standards label. A truck made for Japan carries neither the statement nor the label, and no page read says what the clerk accepts in their place.

Registration. A Class I off-highway vehicle plate from the county clerk (T.C.A. 55-4-701). The clerk may require an affidavit. A truck that will not be registered for roads can be given a title-only and a Department of Revenue sticker.

  • County roads and state highways posted 45 mph or less, at no more than 35 mph, daylight only, never on an interstate, a controlled access highway or a road a county, a town or the state has prohibited (55-8-185(b) to (d))
  • A driver 16 or older with a valid driver license, a liability policy and a registered truck (55-8-185(b)(1) to (4))
  • No helmet on a county road for a Class I off-highway vehicle. On a state highway the helmet rule applies unless 55-9-302(b) exempts the rider (55-8-185(b)(5))
  • Class I means four to six nonhighway tires, a top speed over 35 mph, non-straddle seating for no more than four and a steering wheel, within the weight and width limits the Department states

Can I drive a 25 year old kei truck on Tennessee roads?

Yes, once it is registered and insured. The 2025 law lets a registered utility terrain vehicle run on any county road and on any state highway posted 45 mph or less, at no more than 35 mph, in daylight, with a driver 16 or older who has a driver license. It cannot use interstates or controlled access highways, and a county, a town or the state can close a road to it.

A newer kei truck imported as off road equipment and governed to 25 mph is too slow for the Class I (over 35 mph) and medium speed (over 30 mph) classes. It fits the low speed vehicle band, over 20 and not over 25 mph, which requires the federal low speed standard and a VIN to the federal format. A registered low speed vehicle is a utility terrain vehicle under the 2025 act, so it may run on county roads and state highways posted 45 mph or less at no more than 35 mph. Kept off the road, it takes a title-only.

Low speed vehicle

Where it can run

Private land and farms on a title-only. As a registered low speed vehicle, any county road and any state highway posted 45 mph or less, at no more than 35 mph. On the farm, a utility terrain vehicle used for agricultural purposes may also use state highways above 45 mph under the 2026 amendment.

Title. A title-only from the county clerk with a Department of Revenue sticker, or a low speed vehicle title and registration with the Low or Medium Speed Affidavit, RV-F16031.

Registration. Low speed vehicle registration if the clerk accepts the affidavit. None for a title-only truck. A utility terrain vehicle operated for agricultural purposes, or on a recreational trail or area, is exempt from the off-highway vehicle registration of chapter 4, part 7.

  • Low speed vehicle: any four-wheeled electric or gasoline vehicle, excluding golf carts, whose top speed is greater than 20 mph but not greater than 25 mph, complying with 49 CFR 571.500 (Department of Revenue, off-highway vehicles page)
  • The affidavit RV-F16031 certifies under penalty of perjury that the vehicle has the required equipment and meets 49 CFR 571, including a VIN conforming to 49 CFR 565. A governed nonroad import is registered that way only if it meets it
  • Class I off-highway vehicle needs a top speed greater than 35 mph, and the medium speed class a top speed greater than 30 mph (Department of Revenue, off-highway vehicles page)
  • The Department of Revenue sticker must be on any off-highway vehicle operated in many federal or state owned facilities such as parks and game reserves
The rule for a newer off road trucktn.gov, read 29 October 2026

Read from a secondary source or an older page. Confirm it with the office before you rely on it.

A newer truck comes in only as nonroad equipment, permanently governed to a top speed and with a nonroad engine certified by EPA before import. It pays the same 25 percent truck duty. What that engine needs.

What about a newer truck imported as off road equipment and governed to 25 mph?

At 25 mph it is too slow for the Class I off-highway and medium speed classes and falls in the low speed vehicle band. A low speed registration needs the federal low speed equipment and a VIN to the federal format, which the clerk checks on the affidavit. A registered low speed vehicle has the same county road and 45 mph state highway rights. Kept off road, it takes a title-only and a Department of Revenue sticker.

Owning one

Owning one in Tennessee.

For a 25 year road truck. The first title step by step, the papers, every fee the statute sets, tax, insurance, emissions and the rest. Each line carries its cite, read 29 October 2026.

The first title

To confirm

The county clerk's office in the county of residence, working for the Tennessee Department of Revenue's Vehicle Services Division, toll free 888 871 3171, Monday to Friday 8:00 to 4:30 Central. Applications for registration are only processed through the local county clerk.

  1. Take proof of ownership to the county clerk in your county of residence. For a truck imported from another country the Department of Revenue lists a manufacturer's statement or certificate of origin, a bill of sale, Form HS-7 and a clear photograph of the federal safety standards label.
  2. A truck made for Japan has no manufacturer's statement or certificate of origin and no federal safety standards label, and the Department's page does not mention the 25 year exemption or a foreign title. Ask the clerk before purchase what it accepts in their place.
  3. For road use, ask for the registration class that fits the truck's top speed. A Class I off-highway vehicle, top speed over 35 mph, gets an off-highway vehicle plate and the clerk may require an affidavit. A medium speed or low speed vehicle needs the Low or Medium Speed Affidavit, RV-F16031.
  4. For off road use only, ask for a title-only. The clerk issues a Tennessee Department of Revenue sticker, which must be on the truck as evidence of title. The sticker is non-renewable and non-transferable.
  5. Insure the truck. A liability policy that meets the financial responsibility law is a condition of operating a utility terrain vehicle on a county road or a state highway.

The inspection. No inspection station step was found for a Tennessee title. The county clerk takes the documents, and for a medium or low speed registration the owner certifies the required equipment on the affidavit under penalty of perjury. Whether a clerk or a law enforcement officer verifies the VIN on an imported truck was not found.

The frame numberThe Low or Medium Speed Affidavit asks for a VIN conforming to 49..To confirm

The Low or Medium Speed Affidavit asks for a VIN conforming to 49 CFR 565, which is 17 characters, and the Class I off-highway vehicle registration asks for the VIN on its forms. A Japanese frame number such as DA63T-123456 is shorter. No page read says whether the county clerk titles a kei truck under its frame number, assigns a number or refuses. The Department's insurance verification application checks the license plate and the VIN against insurers' reports, so the number on the policy has to match the title. This is an inference from the forms, not a Department statement.

Tax at title7 percent state rate at titleTo confirm

Tennessee levies sales tax on a vehicle bought in the state at a general state rate of 7 percent plus a local rate that varies by county and city, and use tax when sales tax was not collected on an item brought or shipped into the state, according to the Department of Revenue's sales and use tax page. Sales of vehicles between spouses, siblings, lineal relatives and a few other transfers are excepted and need the Affidavit of Non-dealer Transfers. A credit for tax paid in another state or country, any cap on the amount taxed and the yearly county fees were not found. Read 29 October 2026.

The minimums. $25,000 for each injury or death per accident, $50,000 for total injuries or deaths per accident and $25,000 for property damage per accident, stated by the Department of Revenue for a vehicle with a regular passenger or motorcycle license plate, read 29 October 2026. The statute, T.C.A. 55-12-107, was not read.

When it is required. A utility terrain vehicle operated on a county road or a state highway must be covered by a liability policy that meets the financial responsibility law in chapter 12, part 1 of title 55, T.C.A. 55-8-185(b)(2). The old Class I and Class II county road rule had the same condition, T.C.A. 55-4-701(c) as in Public Chapter 790. The act's exemption for trails and agricultural use names the registration and equipment requirements and does not name insurance. A truck kept on private land with a title-only has no statutory insurance duty in the sources read.

Tennessee fines uninsured drivers and can cancel the registration of a vehicle that is not covered by a liability policy or other proof of financial responsibility, according to the Department of Revenue. The Department runs a web-based insurance verification that checks the license plate and the VIN against insurers' reports.

What the insurer will ask. The Department matches plate and VIN, so the VIN on the policy must be the VIN on the title, which for a kei truck is whatever number the county clerk titles. An insurer will also ask how Tennessee registered the truck, as a Class I off-highway vehicle with an off-highway plate, a low speed vehicle or a title-only. That is a reading of the Department's page, not an insurer's rule.

A kei truck. No emissions testing program is in operation, so a kei truck is not tested. Testing in most Tennessee counties with a program ended on 14 January 2022 after the Environmental Protection Agency approved a revision to the state's air quality plan, and Metro Nashville's program ended on 5 February 2022, according to a General Assembly fiscal note of 11 February 2023 that concludes no program will operate in fiscal year 2023-24 and after.

A Class I or Class II off-highway vehicle is issued an off-highway vehicle license plate, T.C.A. 55-4-701. A medium or low speed vehicle is registered through the county clerk with the affidavit. Registration renews online at tncountyclerk.com, at a kiosk, by phone app, by mail or in person at the county clerk, according to the Department's renewals page. A title-only truck carries a Department of Revenue sticker that is non-renewable and non-transferable and becomes invalid when the vehicle is sold or dismantled. Read 29 October 2026.

Questions

Can a kei truck be registered for Tennessee roads?

Yes. The Department of Revenue says the medium speed class and the Class I off-highway class both include mini-trucks. A registered one is a utility terrain vehicle under the 2025 law and may run on county roads and on state highways posted 45 mph or less, at no more than 35 mph.

Which class does a 25 year kei truck register in?

Its top speed is over 35 mph, so it fits the Class I off-highway vehicle class, which gets an off-highway vehicle plate from the county clerk. The medium speed class is for a top speed over 30 mph and not more than 35 mph, and the low speed class for a top speed over 20 mph and not more than 25 mph.

What papers does the county clerk need for a truck from Japan?

Proof of ownership. For an imported vehicle the Department lists a manufacturer's statement or certificate of origin, a bill of sale, Form HS-7 and a photograph of the federal safety standards label. A truck made for Japan has no statement or label, and the Department's page does not say what the clerk accepts in their place, so ask the clerk before you buy.

My truck has a frame number, not a 17 character VIN. Can Tennessee register it?

The low and medium speed affidavit asks for a VIN to the federal format. No page read says how a clerk handles a frame number, so confirm with the county clerk. The insurance policy must carry the same number as the title because the Department matches plate and VIN against insurers' reports.

What insurance does it need?

A liability policy that meets Tennessee's financial responsibility law: $25,000 for each injury or death per accident, $50,000 for total injuries or deaths per accident and $25,000 for property damage. It is a condition of running a utility terrain vehicle on a county road or a state highway.

Does a kei truck need a safety inspection or an emissions test?

No periodic safety inspection or emissions test was found. Tennessee's emissions testing ended in 2022. For a low or medium speed registration the owner certifies the required equipment on an affidavit.

Do I need a helmet?

Helmets are required for the operator and each passenger unless an exemption applies. Operating a Class I off-highway vehicle on a county road is exempt in the law's own words, and a state highway is not.

Can I use it on the farm?

Yes. A utility terrain vehicle used for agricultural purposes is exempt from off-highway vehicle registration and the daylight rule, and since April 2026 it is free of the 45 mph limit on state highways. It still may not exceed 35 mph or use an interstate or a closed road.

Statewide

A governed kei truck counts in Tennessee once the Department of Revenue registers it as a medium speed vehicle or a Class I off-highway vehicle, two classes the Department says include mini-trucks, and a truck governed to 25 mph that meets the federal standard counts as a low speed vehicle. Public Chapter 255 of 2025 (SB 728), in force from the Governor's signature on 29 April 2025, folded the low speed vehicle, the medium speed vehicle, the Class I and Class II off-highway vehicle and the all-terrain vehicle into one class, the utility terrain vehicle, in T.C.A. 55-8-185. A registered and insured one, driven by someone 16 or older with a full driver license, may use any county road in the state and any state highway posted 45 mph or less, at no more than 35 mph and by day, and no county or town act has to open the road first. It may never use an interstate or a controlled-access highway, and it crosses a faster highway only at right angles after a full stop. The closing power is local and the state's own. A county or a municipality may prohibit utility terrain vehicles on a road under its jurisdiction by resolution or ordinance, once its governing body finds the ban necessary for safety, and sends a copy to the Department of Safety. The Department of Transportation may do the same on its roads, and the two departments were to publish the list of prohibited roads by 1 October 2025. The act repealed the county road section 55-8-203 and the medium speed section 55-8-191 on which the state file's road rule still rests, so 55-8-185 now carries the road rule. A city street that is neither a county road nor a state highway is not named in the section. A utility terrain vehicle used for agricultural purposes is exempt from the registration and daylight rules, and on a private trail or area it is exempt from registration and equipment rules.

Engines and EPA

Why the engine decides which truck comes in.

The same three facts hold in Tennessee and every other state.

The 25 year truck

It comes in on age

A 25 year old kei truck in original configuration clears both agencies on age. No Registered Importer and no Independent Commercial Importer is needed.

EPA's provision asks only that the truck is in its original configuration with the same model of engine it left the factory with.

40 CFR 85.1511(f)(2)eCFR, read 28 October 2026

The newer truck

EPA asks for a certified engine

A newer kei truck comes in as nonroad equipment, permanently modified so its top speed is 25 mph or less, with its engine covered by an EPA certificate of conformity before it reaches US Customs. The governor stays for the life of the truck, and removing it is tampering, a federal offense.

Mini-trucks, importing used motor vehicles as nonroad vehiclesEPA, read 28 October 2026

Engine size

Why 30 kilowatts decides a newer truck's engine

EPA sorts nonroad gasoline engines by maximum power, not size. Every kei engine is under 1,000 cc, so an engine of 30 kW or less may certify to the small engine standards, and 30 kW is the line that decides. Today's stock kei engines are rated above it, and a speed governor does not lower an engine's maximum power.

Every kei engine family EPA has certified for mini trucks is a lower power certified configuration, between 14.46 and 29.9 kW, under part 90 or part 1054. A certified mini truck engine is that configuration, not the stock engine.

Tennessee, the five answers

Road, title, land, inspection and what is next.

The roadCan I drive it on the road?

Since April 2025 Tennessee puts a registered kei truck in its utility terrain vehicle class. It may run on any county road and on any state highway posted 45 mph or less, at no more than 35 mph, in daylight, with a driver 16 or older who holds a driver license and a liability policy on the truck, unless the county, the town or the state has barred the road.

  • The class is called the utility terrain vehicle. It means a low speed vehicle, a medium speed vehicle, a Class I off-highway vehicle, a Class II off-highway vehicle or an all-terrain vehicle (T.C.A. 55-8-185(a) as rewritten by Public Chapter 255 of 2025). The Department of Revenue says the medium speed class and the Class I off-highway class both include mini-trucks
  • Where. Any county road in the state and any state highway where the speed limit is 45 mph or less (55-8-185(c)(1)). No county or town has to open the road first
  • Never on an interstate or national defense highway, a controlled access highway, a road a county or municipality has prohibited because its governing body found the ban necessary in the interest of safety or a road the Department of Transportation has prohibited after consulting the Department of Safety (55-8-185(c)(1)). Both departments were to publish the lists of prohibited roads by 1 October 2025 (55-8-185(j))
  • Speed. No more than 35 mph (55-8-185(d)). Daylight only, which includes 30 minutes before dawn and 30 minutes after dusk, except for a vehicle operated for agricultural purposes and a publicly owned vehicle used for wildlife management, law enforcement, emergency services or similar purposes (55-8-185(b)(7))
  • Faster highways. On county roads a vehicle may cross a state highway or other noncounty road posted above 45 mph, except the interstate system, at about 90 degrees after a full stop, yielding to oncoming traffic and with headlights and taillights lit. A highway with more than two lanes or limited access is crossed only at a place the Department of Transportation or the local authority designates and signs (55-8-185(c)(2))
  • Who and what. Registration under chapters 3 and 4 of title 55 and a liability policy that meets the financial responsibility law. An operator 16 or older with a valid driver license, which does not include a permit. No passenger who needs a child passenger restraint system (55-8-185(b)(1) to (4) and (6))
  • Helmets for the operator and each passenger unless exempted under 55-9-302(b), except that operating a Class I or Class II off-highway vehicle on a county road is exempt (55-8-185(b)(5))
  • Equipment. Brakes, at least two taillights, stoplights and headlights, two turn signal lamps, a horn, a roll bar, seat belts for each seat, a spark arrester, a muffler and a windshield must work and be used if the vehicle has them, whether from the manufacturer or added later. With no windshield, the operator and each passenger wear impact-resistant glasses, safety goggles or a face shield (55-8-185(b)(8)). The act has two subdivisions numbered (8)
  • Since 1 April 2026 the 45 mph limit on state highways and county roads does not apply to a utility terrain vehicle operated for agricultural purposes, which stays barred from the roads in (c)(1)(A)(i) to (iv) (Public Chapter 663 of 2026, adding a subdivision to 55-8-185(c)(1))
  • A violation is a Class C misdemeanor punishable by a fine only (55-8-185(i)). Sections 55-8-203 and 55-8-191, the old county road section and the old low and medium speed street section, were deleted by the same act

T.C.A. 55-8-185 as rewritten by Public Chapter 255 of 2025 (SB 728), signed 29 April 2025 and in force on becoming law, and amended by Public Chapter 663 of 2026 (SB 2596); T.C.A. 55-8-203 and 55-8-191 deleted by Public Chapter 255; definitions in T.C.A. 55-8-101 and 55-1-125 as the Department of Revenue states them

TitleHow do I title and register it?

Every Tennessee title and registration goes through the county clerk. A mini truck can be titled only, as an off-highway vehicle, or titled and registered for the road, as a Class I off-highway vehicle, a medium speed vehicle or a low speed vehicle.

The steps

  1. Take proof of ownership to the county clerk in your county of residence. For a truck imported from another country the Department of Revenue lists a manufacturer's statement or certificate of origin, a bill of sale, Form HS-7 and a clear photograph of the federal safety standards label.
  2. A truck made for Japan has no manufacturer's statement or certificate of origin and no federal safety standards label, and the Department's page does not mention the 25 year exemption or a foreign title. Ask the clerk before purchase what it accepts in their place.
  3. For road use, ask for the registration class that fits the truck's top speed. A Class I off-highway vehicle, top speed over 35 mph, gets an off-highway vehicle plate and the clerk may require an affidavit. A medium speed or low speed vehicle needs the Low or Medium Speed Affidavit, RV-F16031.
  4. For off road use only, ask for a title-only. The clerk issues a Tennessee Department of Revenue sticker, which must be on the truck as evidence of title. The sticker is non-renewable and non-transferable.
  5. Insure the truck. A liability policy that meets the financial responsibility law is a condition of operating a utility terrain vehicle on a county road or a state highway.

The documents

  • Proof of ownership, with proof of identification and residency
  • Form HS-7 declaration and a bill of sale, for a truck imported from another country
  • The manufacturer's statement or certificate of origin and a photograph of the federal safety standards label, which the Department's imported vehicles page lists and a truck made for Japan does not have
  • Low or Medium Speed Affidavit, RV-F16031, for a medium speed or low speed registration
  • An affidavit for a Class I or Class II off-highway vehicle registration, if the clerk requires one
  • Proof of a liability policy that meets the financial responsibility law, for the road

LandCan I use it on a farm or private land?

Off the road a kei truck is a Class I off-highway vehicle, which the Department of Revenue says includes mini-trucks, and it can carry a title-only with a Department of Revenue sticker. A utility terrain vehicle used on a recreational trail or area, or for agricultural purposes, is exempt from the off-highway vehicle registration.

Class. Class I off-highway vehicle: four to six nonhighway tires, a top speed over 35 mph, a limited dry weight, a width of 80 inches or less, non-straddle seating for no more than four and a steering wheel. It includes mini-trucks.

Registration. A title-only may be issued for an off-highway vehicle not registered for roads. The Department of Revenue sticker is non-renewable and non-transferable and must be on any off-highway vehicle operated in many federal or state owned facilities such as parks and game reserves. The 2025 act exempts three uses from the registration requirements of chapter 4, part 7 and from the act's equipment and safety requirements. They are operation on a private or public recreational trail or area, operation on an affiliated trail or area run by an entity with a safety program and operation for agricultural purposes.

Off road usetn.gov, read 29 October 2026

On the farm

A utility terrain vehicle operated for agricultural purposes is exempt from off-highway vehicle registration, from the daylight rule and from the act's equipment requirements. Since 1 April 2026 it is also free of the 45 mph limit on state highways and county roads, while it stays off interstates, controlled access highways and roads a county, a town or the state has prohibited, and it still may not exceed 35 mph. The act does not define agricultural purposes.

InspectionWhat inspection or insurance applies?

Safety. No periodic safety inspection was found. For a medium or low speed registration the owner certifies the required federal equipment on the Low or Medium Speed Affidavit under penalty of perjury.

Emissions. No emissions testing program is in operation. Testing in most counties that had it ended on 14 January 2022 and Metro Nashville's program ended on 5 February 2022, according to a General Assembly fiscal note of February 2023.

Insurance. A registered utility terrain vehicle on a county road or state highway must be covered by a liability policy that meets Tennessee's financial responsibility law. The Department of Revenue states the minimum limits for a vehicle with a regular passenger or motorcycle plate as $25,000 for each injury or death per accident, $50,000 for total injuries or deaths per accident and $25,000 for property damage per accident.

NextWhat is coming?

Tenn. Code Ann. 55-4-144 requires an applicant seeking an initial registration of certain motor vehicles to provide documentation of being a U.S. citizen, a lawful permanent resident or a person whose presence has been authorized by the federal government for a specified period. The Department of Revenue does not say which vehicles are covered.

Questions

Asked about Tennessee.

Can I drive a 25 year old kei truck on Tennessee roads?

Yes, once it is registered and insured. The 2025 law lets a registered utility terrain vehicle run on any county road and on any state highway posted 45 mph or less, at no more than 35 mph, in daylight, with a driver 16 or older who has a driver license. It cannot use interstates or controlled access highways, and a county, a town or the state can close a road to it.

What about a newer truck imported as off road equipment and governed to 25 mph?

At 25 mph it is too slow for the Class I off-highway and medium speed classes and falls in the low speed vehicle band. A low speed registration needs the federal low speed equipment and a VIN to the federal format, which the clerk checks on the affidavit. A registered low speed vehicle has the same county road and 45 mph state highway rights. Kept off road, it takes a title-only and a Department of Revenue sticker.

What does the registration take?

The county clerk registers it with proof of ownership. A Class I off-highway vehicle gets an off-highway vehicle plate and the clerk may ask for an affidavit. A low or medium speed vehicle needs the Low or Medium Speed Affidavit, which certifies lights, turn signals, reflectors, a parking brake, mirrors, a safety glass windshield, seat belts at every seat and a VIN to the federal format.

What license do I need?

A valid driver license, not a permit, and you must be 16 or older. Helmets are required unless an exemption applies, and a Class I off-highway vehicle on a county road is exempt.

Can I use it on my farm?

Yes. A utility terrain vehicle operated for agricultural purposes is exempt from the off-highway vehicle registration and the daylight rule, and since April 2026 it is free of the 45 mph limit on state highways. It still may not exceed 35 mph or use an interstate or a road that has been closed to it.

Can I keep it off road only?

Yes. The clerk issues a title-only for an off-highway vehicle and a Department of Revenue sticker, which you need in many state and federal parks and game reserves.

Upgrades

Upgrades in Tennessee.

Height and lift. Frame height is capped at 24 inches for trucks of 4,500 lb and under. Passenger vehicle bumpers may not exceed 22 inches. Front lift blocks are barred and the body floor to frame gap may not exceed four inches (Tenn. Code Ann. 55-9-215). (Unsure.)

Tires and fenders. Rear fenders or mudflaps are required above 3,000 lb carrying capacity, which is above a kei truck's capacity (Tenn. Code Ann. 55-9-212). The tire section covers studs and chains and not tread depth or size (55-9-106). None found on protrusion or spacers. (Unsure.)

Lights. Two to four headlights are allowed and no more than two auxiliary lamps may be lit at one time in addition. Front flashing lights are barred except for listed vehicles and steady front lights must be white or amber (Tenn. Code Ann. 55-9-402). (Unsure.)

Modification and inspection. None found for an ordinary registered vehicle (Tenn. Code Ann. 55-9-215 read by summary only and the titling rules not read). An officer may stop and inspect a vehicle that appears to violate that section (55-9-215). (Unsure.)

From the upgrades chapter of Mini Truck Roadbook, the 2026 to 2027 edition, with the statute after each rule. A rule marked (Unsure.) rests on a source the book could not read in full.
