Every owner of a commercial motor vehicle shall keep records of the acquisition and use in the City of each such commercial motor vehicle showing the date of acquisition, the number of miles traveled in the City, and the number of miles traveled by such article outside the City, the weight of the vehicle and the weight of the vehicle plus the weight of the maximum load to be carried, together with the full annual fee or charge paid under the Vehicle and Traffic Law of the State of New York for the registration of the vehicle. Every owner of a motor vehicle for transportation of passengers shall keep records of each such vehicle showing the date of acquisition and use in the City and the basis for the compensation charged to passengers for transporting such passengers. Where the owner operates the vehicle pursuant to a franchise under which he pays to the City a percentage of its gross earnings or gross receipts, or operates the vehicle for the transportation of children to and from schools or day camps, or operates the vehicle exclusively for the transportation of persons in connection with funerals, he shall maintain sufficient records to establish these facts. The foregoing records shall be open for inspection and examination at any time upon demand by the Commissioner of Finance or his duly authorized agent or employee and must be preserved for a period of three years, except that the Commissioner of Finance may consent to their destruction within that period or may require that they be kept longer.
