" Check Your Texas License Plate Frame "

[CAMAC]

Howdy from Texas,

Just a reminder to all you Texas folks out there,check your license

plate frame,if it covers any part of the word "TEXAS" you can be stopped

and fined.

No decals or logos on the plate either,like the Longhorn logo.

Have a great day!!!!

Virginia passed similar legislation several years ago and it is required to be posted in all state inspection lanes.

A big stink got stirred up when it was discovered that "University of Virginia Alumni" license frames were technically illegal. Governor George Allen had one on his personal car! <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

Plus the Commonwealth now has so many different license plate designs that it's hard to find a frame that doesn't cover up some of the rhetoric. Some have the validator decals at the top, some at the bottom. "Virginia" at top or bottom.

Luckily the YOM or state-issued antique plates can wear almost any frame. I'm kinda partial to a simple chrome outline frame anyway, though most of the cars have an OCA frame on the back if it will fit properly. And the Bravada has a diecast "flames" frame (old hotrodders never really die <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />).
