Robbins' Motorcycle License Plate for Veterans Signed into Law

Harrisburg – Legislation sponsored by state Senator Bob Robbins (R-50) was signed into law by the Governor this week.

Senate Bill 279 creates a veterans license plate for motorcycles. Sen. Robbins stated, "Prior to this bill becoming law, Pennsylvania had eleven special veterans license plates for automobiles, but not one for motorcycles. This new law simply provides veterans--who are motorcycle enthusiasts--the same opportunity to proudly display their service to our country. It has been a privilege to sponsor this legislation on behalf of the veterans community. It is important that we provide veterans with the proper recognition they deserve."

Senate Bill 279 is now Act 8 of 2004. The law will take effect in 60 days. Once the plate is created by the Department of Transportation, any honorably discharged veteran may apply to the Department for a veterans motorcycle license plate, which will cost $20.00.
