Light truck plates

Light truck plates also receive month and year stickers plus a weight sticker (see registered gross weight). Place the weight sticker to the left of the plate number; place the month sticker on in the lower left corner; place the year sticker in the lower right corner.

Personalized and special plates for trucks do not receive a weight sticker. All vehicles registered by gross weight must carry the certificate of registration at all times. The certificate of registration shows the registration type and gross weight.
