About this plate
s. 66 governs collector number plates and is written almost entirely as PROHIBITIONS, which is itself the interesting part: "(1) The registrar may issue a collector number plate only to a person prescribed by regulation. (2) No person shall attach a collector number plate to a motor vehicle except when permitted to do so by the regulations. (3) No person shall attach a collector number plate to a motor vehicle that has the status of a salvageable motor vehicle unless the motor vehicle (a) has been repaired; and (b) is being driven in a road test in accordance with the regulations. (4) No person shall attach a collector number plate to a motor vehicle for the purpose of using it to transport persons or property for compensation." Note (3): Manitoba contemplates a collector plate on a REPAIRED WRITE-OFF under road test, a direct hook into the written-off motor vehicle regime that follows in the same Act. Eligibility is entirely in unread regulations (s. 66(1)), which is the same gap recorded at instrument.regulation. s. 35(4) supplies the deeming rule and, unlike the dealer and repairer rules, DOES require a registration-class sticker.
