This bill amends the Code of West Virginia to exempt honorably discharged veterans from paying registration fees for special military license plates, with the exception of a $10 initial application fee. The current law requires additional fees for registration and renewal, but the proposed changes will eliminate these extra charges for the first special plate issued to veterans.

Additionally, the bill allows surviving spouses of deceased military personnel to continue using their spouse's military license plate until certain conditions are met, such as remarriage or failure to renew the plate. The legislation aims to honor veterans by reducing their financial burden related to vehicle registration while maintaining a nominal fee for the initial application.
