LANSING (AP) — Michigan drivers may soon have a grace period for displaying a license plate on their vehicles.
State senators unanimously approved a House bill Wednesday requiring drivers to fasten and display a registration plate on their vehicles no later than 30 days after the registration or renewal date.
The current Michigan Vehicle Code prohibits all driving on the highway without a visible plate.
In November the House cleared its proposal to amend the code with a 30-day buffer, during which paper and electronic verification through the Law Enforcement Information
Network would be accepted as proof of registration.
Drivers who fail to display a license plate after the 30 days would still receive a civil infraction.
The bill is headed to the governor.
