As directed by the tax collector, each person driving, operating, or having control of any wagon, cart, or other vehicle, or using or controlling, possessing, or operating any machine, device, or equipment, including vending machines, where a business license is required under the provisions of this title, shall fix thereon a license, tag, plate or decal as issued by the tax collector and at the place directed by the tax collector, or if the tax collector shall so direct, shall procure a license container and fix thereon for the purpose of holding the business license, or, if the tax collector shall so direct shall carry a business license or identification card as directed by the tax collector upon his person.
