HB1502

House Bill 1502 amends existing Arkansas law regarding the registration and licensing of historic or special interest vehicles and antique motor vehicles. The primary change introduced by the bill is the reduction of the age threshold for a vehicle to qualify as 'historic' or 'special interest' from 45 years to 30 years. This change applies to the general registration of such vehicles, the eligibility criteria for reproductions or facsimiles of these vehicles, and the definitions regarding the use of alternative antique license plates. By lowering this threshold, the bill expands the pool of vehicles eligible for specialized registration and distinct license plates. The legislation maintains the existing fee structure and procedural requirements for these registrations.
