- About this plate
- IT IS THE STRONGEST ENTRY IN THIS FILE despite the file's weak statutory base, because the Division states the serial LENGTH and the plate LAYOUT in its own words, which is more than Florida, Colorado, Nevada or Arizona do for their specialty programmes. The gap that remains is the creation threshold: Colorado requires three thousand signatures, Nevada 250 applications, and Utah's equivalent is in Part 4 and was not read.
- About the format
- Same DSL limitation as Arizona's, arrived at from the opposite direction, Arizona's authority fixes one position's type and leaves the count, Utah's fixes the count and leaves the types.
