Mandatory Yellow Plates

Under specific circumstances, a motorist convicted of drunk driving will be required to use “restricted plates”—these are yellow license plates with red lettering placed on a vehicle registered in the name of the convicted driver. Drivers required to use restricted plates are drivers with:

  • BAC level was over .17%
  • a drunk driving conviction within the past 6 years
  • a refusal for the breathalyzer test and have a drunk driving conviction within the past 20 years.

Use of the restricted plates may last as long as the driver’s license suspension.
