Vehicles.
Summary
Existing law authorizes an owner of a vehicle that is a 1969 or older model-year or the owner of a commercial vehicle or pickup truck that is a 1972 or older model year to, if specified requirements are met, utilize license plates of this state with the date of the year corresponding to the model-year date when the vehicle was manufactured, if the model-year date license plate is legible and serviceable. This bill would expand the authorization for those plates to include the owner of a 1980 or older model-year vehicle.
