Senate Bill 403 would add new distinctive license plate options tied to Kansas wildlife conservation efforts, including pheasants forever and quail forever plates, and it also provides for a delta waterfowl distinctive license plate. The bill is intended to establish and govern these plate types under Kansas motor vehicle law.

In addition to creating the distinctive plates, SB 403 would restrict the use of material or objects that cover a license plate on motor vehicles. It would also modify the definition of conviction in the Kansas Uniform Commercial Driver’s License Act.

Kansas lawmakers introduced SB 403 as an act concerning motor vehicles, with the distinctive plate provisions and the changes affecting license plate handling and commercial driver licensing enforcement.
