What Are Some Laws About License Plates In Texas?
What Are Some Laws About License Plates In Texas•
One of them is that the license plate needs to be legible from as near as 40 feet, and closer. So, if the license plate got some mud on it, you’ve been out four-wheeling. You know, that might not be legible, and that might get you pulled over.
If the license plate has a frame on it and that frame extends just a little bit over the word Texas or over some of the numbers or letters, that might cause you to be stuck for the license plate not being legible. Seems kind of ticky-tack, seems kind of hyper-technical, but they may pull you over for that. That’s a law about license plates.
Also, it needs to be legible, so don’t put one of those lenses on it. I know it looks really cool to have one of those smoky lenses over the license plate. It looks really cool, especially when you have other things kind of blacked out and darkened, but that’s gonna get you pulled over because it makes that license plate hard to read. So, don’t put a lens on it.
Summary
Also, the license plate has to have a light on it. Now, this applies to the rear license plate, not the front license plate and it applies at night. So, there has to be a light that makes that license plate legible from 40 feet or closer. You need to make sure that the license plate light is working on your back license plate. These are some of the things that can be a little technical about license plate laws in Texas.
Texas law mandates that license plates be visible and readable from at least 40 feet away. They must also be free from obstructions like dirt, overly intrusive plate frames, and tinted or smoky lenses. These can hinder visibility and result in being stopped by law enforcement. Furthermore, the rear license plate must be illuminated at night, with a light that ensures its legibility from the required distance.
