The Commission is hereby authorized and empowered, on behalf of the State of Oklahoma, and when it shall deem it to be in the best interest of the residents of this state so to do, to enter into reciprocal compacts and agreements with other states, or the authorized agencies thereof, when such states have made provisions substantially similar to this section, respecting the regulation of motor vehicles engaged in interstate or foreign commerce upon and over the public highways. And such compacts and agreements may provide for the granting, to the residents of such states, privileges substantially similar to those granted thereby to Oklahoma residents: Provided: (1) That no such compact or agreement shall supersede or suspend the operation of any law, rule or regulation of the State of Oklahoma which shall apply to vehicles operated intrastate in the State of Oklahoma; (2) That any privileges, the granting of which shall be provided by any such compact or agreement, shall extend only in cases of full compliance with the laws of the state joining in such compact or agreement; (3) That no such compact or agreement shall supersede or suspend the operation of any law of the State of Oklahoma other than those applying to the payment of fees for registration certificates or identification devices; and (4) That the powers and authority of the Oklahoma Tax Commission to administer and enforce the tax laws of this state, pertaining to the taxation of motor vehicles, shall be in no manner superseded or suspended.
