Overview: Legislation (H.B. 2338) has been reintroduced that would allow antique military vehicles to display an alternate registration insignia as opposed to a traditional license plate. Antique vehicle plates are currently available for vehicles that are more than 25 years old and owned solely as collector’s items. The bill passed the West Virginia House in 2019, but by rule it has returned to the House Committee on Technology and Infrastructure where it currently awaits consideration.
