The bill proposes to repeal the requirement for vehicles to display a front license plate in Wyoming, allowing for a single license plate to be displayed on the rear of the vehicle only. This change is reflected in the amendments to various sections of the law, including W.S. 31-2-205, which now specifies that license plates must be "conspicuously displayed and securely fastened to be plainly visible on the rear of the vehicle." Additionally, the bill makes conforming amendments throughout the relevant statutes, such as changing references from "plates" to "plate" in several instances, and updating the language regarding decals for breast cancer awareness and other special plates.

Furthermore, the bill eliminates certain provisions related to the issuance of multiple license plates for specific vehicle types, such as motorcycles and multipurpose vehicles, and repeals sections that previously mandated the display of front plates. The effective date for this legislation is set for July 1, 2026, allowing time for the necessary adjustments to be made in compliance with the new regulations.
