What’s in it
Under current law, registration plates issued for a motor vehicle other than an autocycle, motorcycle, motorized bicycle, or truck tractor must be attached to the motor vehicle, one in the front and the other in the rear. However, a motor vehicle which is model year 1948 or older, or a reconstructed or specially constructed vehicle built to resemble a model year 1948 or older vehicle, other than a truck registered for more than five tons, autocycle, motorcycle, or truck tractor (autocycles, motorcycles, and truck tractors are all issued only one registration plate), may display one registration plate on the rear of the vehicle if the other registration plate is carried in the vehicle when the vehicle is operated on a public highway.
Read the full explanation
This bill authorizes a vintage motor vehicle, a reconstructed or specially constructed vehicle built to resemble a vintage motor vehicle, and a limited-production motor vehicle to display one registration plate on the rear of the vehicle if the other registration plate is carried in the vehicle when the vehicle is operated on a public highway. The bill defines “vintage motor vehicle” as a motor vehicle which is model year 1979 or older and “limited-production motor vehicle” as a motor vehicle with a specific make, model, and trim level, if the trim level has a different engine than the base model, of which 10,000 or fewer vehicles of that make, model, and trim level were manufactured in the year the motor vehicle was produced, as determined by the department of transportation.37(2).
