- (a) No person shall engage in the business or act in the capacity of a motor transportation broker unless he is the holder of a valid, subsisting, and effective license, issued by the commission. No license will be issued to any copartnership, trust, or corporation. A full-time employee of a duly licensed motor transportation broker is not required to be a licensee unless he is in responsible charge of a place of business separate from that shown on his employer's license.
- (b) A license shall be in the form prescribed by the director. It shall expire on September 30 of any year after its issuance, unless it has been renewed during the preceding two months, or unless an application for renewal has been timely filed and is then pending.
- (c) Every license shall designate with certainty the street or highway address from which the licensee's business is to be conducted, and said address shall be deemed for all purposes to be the licensee's place of business. Process in any civil action may be served upon the licensee by leaving a copy thereof at said address. Every notice required by the rules shall be deemed served when mailed by the director or under his supervision to said address. The licensee shall not change the address of his place of business without first obtaining a new license.
