A motor vehicle over thirty years old and used for general transportation may bear the license plate of the vehicle's model year instead of its current registration plate, if the current registration plate is maintained within the motor vehicle and produced upon request of a law enforcement officer."

SECTION 2. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
