This bill amends the Code of West Virginia to authorize the issuance of specialized license plates for municipal fire department vehicles. Specifically, it introduces new provisions that require registration plates issued to city or municipality fire departments to feature blue lettering on a white background, with the words "West Virginia" on top and a fire department insignia along with other identifying lettering. The design must not have reversed colors and must be made of reflectorized material. This addition aims to clearly identify vehicles as belonging to municipal fire departments.

Additionally, the bill maintains existing provisions regarding the design and issuance of registration plates for various governmental vehicles, including those for law enforcement and county sheriffs. The changes reflect a broader effort to enhance the visibility and recognition of municipal fire department vehicles within the state, ensuring they are easily identifiable to the public.
