Maryland Bills to Provide for Single License Plate Introduced in House

Legislation (H.B. 562) has been introduced in the Maryland House of Delegates to require the issuance of only a single license plate for motor vehicles.  The bill, favored by state hobbyists, requires that the single registration plate be attached on the front of tractors and on the rear of all other vehicles.  A second bill (H.B. 577) provides that for vehicles required to display two registration plates, the front plate may be stored inside the vehicle if the vehicle was manufactured without a means to secure and display a front plate.  Both bills will be considered by the House Environmental Matters Committee on Tuesday, February 19, 2013.

We Urge You to Contact Members of the House Environmental Matters Committee (Contact Info Below) Immediately to Request Support for H.B. 562 and H.B. 577

  • H.B. 562 would save money, conserve resources and bring Maryland in line with other states that have moved to a single plate requirement. 
     
  • H.B. 577 would protect the aesthetic contours of collector cars and relieve vehicle owners of the burden of having to create mounting holes on some original bumpers.

DON’T DELAY!  Please contact members of the Maryland House Environmental Matters Committee immediately by phone or e-mail to request their support for H.B. 562 and H.B. 577.  

Please e-mail a copy of your letter to Steve McDonald at stevem@sema.org.  Also, please forward this Alert to your fellow car enthusiasts.  Urge them to join the SAN and help defend the hobby! Thank you for your assistance.
