Relates to radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags

This bill requires New York-issued vehicle license plates to include radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags meeting specific technical standards. The tags must store unique vehicle information (like VIN and plate number), be tamper-proof, and work with existing registration systems and E-ZPass toll collection. Vehicle owners will pay an additional $25 fee when new reflectorized plates are issued with these RFID tags. The law directly affects all New York motor vehicle owners and the Department of Motor Vehicles, which must implement the new plate requirements by the effective date.
