(a) normally and as a matter of routine operates or rides in a motor vehicle;

(b) normally and as a matter of routine makes ten or more stops per mile;

(c) must exit the vehicle at the required stops; and

(d) carries an exemption certificate issued by the department.

(2) The following occupants of a motor vehicle are exempt from the provisions of section 61-13-103(1) , MCA, if they are engaged in their official duties and are carrying an exemption certificate:

(a) persons providing garbage service;
