Bill > HB3063

This bill amends the West Virginia motor vehicle registration law to provide free license plates and vehicle registration for volunteer firefighters who have served for five or more years. Specifically, the bill waives license plate and vehicle registration fees for one personal vehicle owned by a volunteer firefighter, contingent upon the firefighter providing an annual affidavit from their fire chief confirming at least five years of service. The exemption is limited to personal vehicles and does not apply to commercial vehicles. This provision recognizes and rewards the significant commitment of volunteer firefighters who dedicate their time to protecting their communities, offering a small financial benefit in recognition of their important public service. The bill maintains all other existing requirements for vehicle registration and does not change any other aspects of motor vehicle licensing regulations.
