It is hereby declared to be the purpose of this act to levy a tax upon the use as defined in this act of all special fuels: (1) delivered into the fuel supply tanks of motor vehicles in Oklahoma or, (2) imported into Oklahoma in the fuel supply tanks of motor vehicles by persons using Oklahoma highways for hire, compensation or other commercial purposes, not specifically exempted herein, to the end that such highway users shall pay to the State of Oklahoma an equal amount in taxes on special fuels so used by them in Oklahoma as is paid by other commercial highway users who use special fuel obtained in Oklahoma and on which the tax levied by this act is collected by special fuel dealers and remitted to the Tax Commission. Said tax is levied as a toll for the use of the public highways of this state. When special fuel is delivered into the supply tank or tanks of a motor vehicle in Oklahoma by a special fuel dealer the tax shall be collected by the special fuel dealer at the time of such sale and delivery and shall be reported and remitted to the Tax Commission as hereinafter provided. The tax shall be reported and paid by special fuel dealers on all special fuel delivered by special fuel dealers into the supply tanks of motor vehicles owned or operated by them. In all other cases persons delivering special fuel into the supply tank of any motor vehicle in Oklahoma and all persons who use any special fuel to propel a motor vehicle upon the public highways of this state on which fuel the tax levied by this act has not been paid shall report such use and remit the tax on such special fuel to the Tax Commission as a special fuel user as hereinafter provided.
