NYS unveils 14 new regional license plates including Long Island and Lower Manhattan

By Jesse O’Neill
June 12, 2023

Car owners in New York can now better rep their slice of the Empire State.

Albany’s Department of Motor Vehicles unveiled a new line custom license plates Monday that showcase 14 different regions of the state, instead of the current plates that jam attractions from Niagara Falls to Montauk into one backdrop.

The plate for New York City featured a view of Lower Manhattan with Lady Liberty in the foreground, while residents in other locales could opt to show off scenes like the Saratoga Racetrack, the New York State Fair in Syracuse or even a flock of roses, the state flower.

Other plates featuring the logos of things like New Yorkers’ favorite sports teams, fraternities and sororities, professional organizations and military affiliations are also available.

Drivers who order the new licenses should be aware that the state will still not allow vulgar vanity plates.

As if there were no other more pressing matters in NY.  I guess the union parasites at DMV gotta stay employed.

14 "Regional" license plates?

In the days to come, that will make it easy for the eco-police to identify and fine your vehicle when it (and you) stray "too far away from your approved zone"....

No, because it will still be the owner's choice of which regional plate to get.

That might be the case if NY were return to its old numbering system, where one's county of residence was reflected in the plate number itself.
