[WPTA] Dzus meeting

Mon Jan 28 06:57:14 MST 2019

The only caution against driving your Triumph at night, whether it has PA classic or antique plates, it the one by Joseph Lucas. We had this discussion 25 years ago.  

"Gentlemen don't motor about after dark".

PennDot doesn't care.

Geez Loueez!!

This has been true for at least the last 25 years if not longer. Many people do not understand this and stick with Classic plates.

Permitted use shall be limited to participation in club activities, exhibits, tours, parades, occasional transportation and similar uses.” Occasional transportation and similar uses are defined as no more than one day a week. Although buses and trucks are eligible for antique, classic and vintage registration plates, buses MAY NOT be used to transport passengers and trucks MAY NOT haul cargo. Antique, classic and vintage registration plates are not available for motorized pedalcycles or motor homes.
