Bill > SB1028

This bill directs the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to form a work group to explore creating new license plates specifically for tow trucks, with the goal of improving the enforcement of tow truck driver registration and identifying towing violations. The work group will be tasked with evaluating the current tow truck registration system, researching license plate design requirements (including color, letters, and decals), discussing the feasibility of implementing new plates, and estimating the associated costs and potential enforcement benefits. The work group will include representatives from the Department of State Police, the Attorney General's Office, the Department of Criminal Justice Services, towing industry professionals, and other relevant stakeholders. The group is required to complete its meetings by November 1, 2025, and submit a comprehensive report to the Governor and General Assembly by December 1, 2025, detailing their findings and potential recommendations for creating and implementing these specialized tow truck license plates.
