yes. Florida statute s. 316.605 Licensing of vehicles.-

(1) Every vehicle, at all times while driven, stopped, or parked upon any highways, roads, or streets of this state, shall be licensed in the name of the owner thereof in accordance with the laws of this state unless such vehicle is not required by the laws of this state to be licensed in this state and shall, except as otherwise provided in s. 320.0706 for front-end registration license plates on truck tractors and s. 320.086(5) which exempts display of license plates on described former military vehicles, display the license plate or both of the license plates assigned to it by the state, one on the rear and, if two, the other on the front of the vehicle, each to be securely fastened to the vehicle outside the main body of the vehicle not higher than 60 inches and not lower than 12 inches from the ground and no more than 24 inches to the left or right of the centerline of the vehicle, and in such manner as to prevent the plates from swinging, and all letters, numerals, printing, writing, and other identification marks upon the plates regarding the word "Florida," the registration decal, and the alphanumeric designation shall be clear and distinct and free from defacement, mutilation, grease, and other obscuring matter, so that they will be plainly visible and legible at all times 100 feet from the rear or front. Vehicle license plates shall be affixed and displayed in such a manner that the letters and numerals shall be read from left to right parallel to the ground. No vehicle license plate may be displayed in an inverted or reversed position or in such a manner that the letters and numbers and their proper sequence are not readily identifiable. Nothing shall be placed upon the face of a Florida plate except as permitted by law or by rule or regulation of a governmental agency. No license plates other than those furnished by the state shall be used. However, if the vehicle is not required to be licensed in this state, the license plates on such vehicle issued by another state, by a territory, possession, or district of the United States, or by a foreign country, substantially complying with the provisions hereof, shall be considered as complying with this chapter. A violation of this subsection is a noncriminal traffic infraction, punishable as a nonmoving violation as provided in chapter 318.

Are license plate covers illegal in Missouri?

No they are not, The law says that as long as the numbers are clearly visible they are allowed on the vehicle. i would say if you get ones that reflect the traffic cams get ones that are clear and dont look suspicious as to what their real uses are. "LICENSE PLATE COVERS - This act provides that license plates may be encased in transparent covers so long as the plates are plainly visible and their reflective qualities are not impaired."

How much is a karaoke license in Florida?

Most bars and clubs have a blanket license that covers DJ's, KJ's, Live Bands, Television Broadcasting, Radio Broadcasting, Jukeboxes and Live Performances. You need no license to karaoke at home or private parties, that I am aware of. If you hold a public event and/or charge money for it, you are responsible for paying royalties of the copyrighted songs performed in public. There are links that you can find in the website of which ever "collection agency" you choose to report to. There are a few, one of the most popular that I've heard of is called ASCAP. Some of the cheaper bars/clubs out there don't bother to get a blanket license so make sure you ask. You never know if one of these agents will show up and ask to see the bars license. If your not covered by the bar YOU will be held accountable by the "collection agency". You can get a business license from your local government.

Are clear license plate covers illegal in Kansas?

Actually, smoke colored license plate covers are illegal in every state in the U.S. The reason is because every state has made it legal for certain equipment to be able to scan the license plate and the smoke colored covers block the equipment from scanning the plate. Due to this, the smoke colored covers are illegal. Just because you have not been stopped by a cop or forced to remove one, does not mean that it is legal in your state. In other words, take the cover off and if you are going to court on one in your state, then that answers your question..Added: Also, since ALL states have distinctive license plates insofar as recognizable colors, graphics, and artwork are concerned, license plate covers of ANY color are prohibited, except clear of course.


Are plastic license plate covers illegal in Louisiana?

To the best of my knowledge they are only unlawful if they are tinted or discolored to the point where they change the basic color(s) of the original license plate or obscure the plate in some fashion so that it cannot be read. The best thing to do in order to be certain is to contact your local PD or DMV office and ask.


Are clear plastic license plate covers illegal in Oregon?

17) Are headlight, tail light/brake light and license plate covers legal for street use inOregon?Answer: No. Headlight and tail/brake light covers do not meet the federal lighting standard (FMVSS 108) and Oregon has adopted the federal standard. Covers alter the light output and also reflectivity of reflex reflectors and may cover up the required square inches of lens and/or reflex reflectors required by FMVSS 108. (ORS 816.010)License plate covers, clear or tinted, are not legal because any material or covering, other than a frame or plate holder, placed on, over or in front of the plate that alters the appearance of the plate, would be illegal. Plate covers, especially tinted ones, alter the visibility of the plate and most importantly, all plate covers alter the reflectivity of the plate. (ORS 803.550).
