What’s in it

Under current law, every vehicle registration plate issued by a county treasurer must display the name of the county, including any special registration plates issued pursuant to Code section 321.34, with limited exceptions. This bill makes displaying the name of the county on such plates optional and strikes an outdated reference in Code section 321.166. Under current law, it is unlawful for the owner of a vehicle to place any frame around or over the registration plate which does not permit full view of all numerals and letters printed on the registration plate, including the county name. A violation of this provision is a simple misdemeanor punishable by a scheduled fine of $30.
