Bill > H3686

This bill proposes an amendment to Chapter 90 of Massachusetts General Laws related to license plate registration for antique automobiles. Specifically, the legislation clarifies that when antique automobile owners restore license plates to their original year of manufacture colors and design, such restoration will not be considered "altering" the registration plates. This means that owners of classic or vintage vehicles can use historically accurate license plates from the original year of the vehicle's manufacture without being penalized or considered to have modified the plates in a way that would violate existing regulations. The bill provides additional flexibility for automotive enthusiasts and collectors who wish to maintain the historical authenticity of their antique vehicles by using period-correct license plates.
