Overview: SAN-supported legislation (H.B. 266) has been introduced in Montana to mandate that the state issue waivers for vehicles unable to display a front license plate. Current law only permits the display of a single rear-mounted plate for motor vehicles registered as a street rod or custom vehicle, and a waiver may be issued for vehicles unable to display a front plate. This bill would require the waiver to be issued. H.B. 266 passed the legislature and has been sent to Governor Gianforte for final approval.
