License plates; prohibit equipping of device that hides or obscures.
SB 2109 prohibits the use of any manual, electronic, or mechanical device that hides or obscures a license plate on vehicles in Mississippi. It directly affects all drivers and vehicle owners who might use such devices, including stickers, covers, or brackets that block plate visibility. The bill amends existing law to explicitly ban these devices, stating that license plates must remain fully visible at all times without obstruction. Violations would be punishable as misdemeanors with a maximum fine of $25.
