The California Senate approved legislation to expand the authorization of year-of-manufacture license plates to include owners of ’80 or older model-year vehicles.

Legislation to expand the authorization of year-of-manufacture license plates to include owners of ’80 or older model-year vehicles was approved by the California Senate. Current law only authorizes owners of vehicles that are of a ’69 or older model-year or owners of a commercial vehicle or pickup that is a ’72 or older to utilize California year-of-manufacture license plates. The bill now moves to the Assembly Transportation Committee for consideration.
