See those plates on cars all the time at Walmart.Beat up 25 year old "classic" car with one time charge collector car plates on it.
Same policy as MD. It restricts driving but does not prohibit. HOWEVER, there was a case in the local paper a few months back that an officer stopped a mid 80's something at midnight with a car load of people. Big surprise, drugs were involved! Reason for stopping car was that it had historic plates and MD law says that 'you cannot transport passengers on a state road with historic plates'. He was def. looking for a reason to pull them over, and rightfully so, but I would think that clause should be taken out of the rules. I suppose when I take my wife and grandson to the monthly car cruise I am guilty as well, even though I am going to a 'car event'.
