What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Transportation issues two registration

plates for most motor vehicles. The owner of the motor vehicle must display one

registration plate on the front of the vehicle and one registration plate on the rear

of the vehicle. If only one registration plate is issued for a vehicle, current law

generally requires that the registration plate be displayed on the rear of the vehicle.

This bill allows the owner of a motor vehicle to display only one registration

plate, to the rear of the vehicle, if the vehicle was originally manufactured without

a bracket for displaying the plate on the front of the vehicle or if the vehicle will

display collector's special interest vehicle registration plates.
