HB 1598 Oklahoma House · 2025 Regular Session

License plates; modifying number of vehicles an owner may tag with Disabled Veterans License Plates; effective date.

HB 1598 proposes to modify the number of vehicles an owner may tag with Purple Heart Recipient License Plates in Oklahoma. Currently, Purple Heart recipients may apply for these plates on vehicles with a rated carrying capacity of one ton or less, but the bill aims to adjust the specific vehicle limit. The legislation would amend Section 1135.2 of Oklahoma law, which governs special license plates, to clarify eligibility and usage rules for this specific plate type. As a proposed bill (withdrawn from committee in April 2025), it has not yet become law.
