S 2339 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Requires that license plates be inspected during vehicle safety inspections and waives fees for the issuance of certain license plates

This bill requires that license plates be visually inspected during standard vehicle safety inspections to check for illegibility (e.g., damage, fading, or missing parts affecting readability). It also waives fees for replacing license plates due to either a design change or a failed plate inspection under the new rule. Vehicle owners needing replacements for these specific reasons will receive the same license plate number at no additional cost. The law ensures safety inspections won't increase fees while clarifying plate condition standards.
