[JAGNUTS] SGI plate changes

[Andrew Martens]

On January 1, 2005 SGI changed the vehicle classification for the PV class (private vehicle) to LV class (light vehicle).  The Safe driver discount for LV plates has been doubled (now max. 20%) compared to the discount on PV plates. However, if your PV plates expire later in 2005, you will not be given the discount until then--unless you go to an SGI agent now. SGI charges a $10 fee to change a vehicle registration to LV, but the annual savings/refund can be over $100/vehicle. It seems SGI is not making this well known.

Hope that helps you!
