whether reserve or substitute motor vehicles are main-
tained by the applicant to be used only in emergencies,

each such motor vehicle, except reserve or substitute ve-
hicle, an annual fee shall be paid to the Commissioner of
Motor Vehicles for certificates of registration issued by
him, of one-eighteenth (l/18c) of a cent per each pas-
senger seat multiplied by the total number of miles that
said application shall show will be traveled by such motor
vehicle over State, State-Aid, improved County roads, and
streets and roads of incorporated towns and cities in the
State of Maryland, during the year for which said cer-
tificate is issued, and no other additional fees, licenses or
tax, shall be charged by the State or any County or mu-
nicipal sub-division of the State except the property tax
and gasoline tax in respect to such vehicles or their opera-
tion.
A copy of the application filed with the Commissioner
of Motor Vehicles shall be forwarded to the State Roads
Commission, which shall thereupon compute the fee pay-
able by each motor vehicle owner for each motor
vehicle for which application for registration has been
made.
Such computation shall be based upon the mileage to be
traversed by said motor vehicle upon all highways having
a hard, smooth surface, composed of gravel, shells, crushed
stone, concrete, paving blocks, asphalt, or other similar
substances.
The State Roads Commission shall have authority, in
disputed cases, to determine which roads and streets upon
which such motor vehicles are to be operated should be
included in the computation.
The State Roads Commission, after making such com-
putation, shall forthwith certify the same to the Commis-
sioner of Motor Vehicles, whereupon the fee shown to be
payable by said computation shall immediately be paid by
such motor vehicle owner to the Commissioner of Motor
Vehicles.
