S 2005 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires MVC to issue one license plate instead of two.

This bill (S 2005) changes New Jersey's license plate law to require only one plate per vehicle, displayed on the rear instead of the front and rear. It directly affects all New Jersey vehicle owners currently required to display two plates. The bill amends state law to specify that the single plate must be placed on the rear, and allows owners who received two plates before the law takes effect to return one to the Motor Vehicle Commission. The bill is pending in the Senate Transportation Committee and has not yet been enacted.
