|
| 1 | | the same or as safe as originally equipped. |
| 2 | | From March 1 April 1 through November 30 October 31, a |
| 3 | | vehicle registered as an expanded-use antique vehicle may be |
| 4 | | driven on the highways without being subject to the |
| 5 | | restrictions set forth in subdivision (1). The Secretary may |
| 6 | | prescribe,
in the Secretary's discretion, that expanded-use |
| 7 | | antique vehicle plates be issued for a
definite or an |
| 8 | | indefinite term, such term to correspond to the term of
|
| 9 | | registration plates issued generally, as provided in Section |
| 10 | | 3-414.1. Any person requesting expanded-use antique vehicle |
| 11 | | plates under this Section
may also apply to have vanity or |
| 12 | | personalized plates as provided under
Section 3-405.1. |
| 13 | | (b) Any person who is the registered owner of an |
| 14 | | expanded-use antique vehicle may
display a historical license |
| 15 | | plate from or representing the model year of
the vehicle, |
| 16 | | furnished by such person, in lieu of the current and valid
|
| 17 | | Illinois expanded-use antique vehicle plates issued thereto, |
| 18 | | provided that the valid and
current Illinois expanded-use |
| 19 | | antique vehicle plates and registration card issued to
the |
| 20 | | expanded-use antique vehicle are simultaneously carried within |
| 21 | | the vehicle and are
available for inspection. |
| 22 | | (c) The Secretary may credit a pro-rated portion of a fee |
| 23 | | previously paid for an antique vehicle registration under |
| 24 | | Section 3-804 to an owner who applies to have that vehicle |
| 25 | | registered as an expanded-use antique vehicle instead of an |
| 26 | | antique vehicle.
