Notwithstanding the provisions of K.S.A. 66-1,114, and amendments thereto, the commission may issue or grant public motor carrier certificates or abandonments thereof without a formal hearing when the request for such issuance, grant or abandonment is made by verified application, and proper notice has been given in accordance with K.S.A. 66-1,114, and amendments thereto, if no protests are lodged against the granting of the application and if the applicant demonstrates the applicant is fit, willing and able to perform such service and is in compliance with the commission's safety rules and regulations. For applications of public motor carriers transporting household goods or passengers, if the commission finds that evidence shows that the proposed service is inconsistent with the public convenience and necessity, the commission shall not grant the application.
