## About this plate

WEST VIRGINIA CLASS G. Worth noting what West Virginia puts in ONE class that other jurisdictions split across three: motorcycles, motor-driven cycles and MOPEDS all register as Class G, bounded by "no more than three wheels" rather than by engine displacement. The Netherlands gives mopeds their own sidecodes and their own plate colour; West Virginia does not distinguish them at all.

## Who can have one

CLASS G: 'Every motorcycle including; motor driven cycles mopeds, having saddle, and no more than three wheels' (WV DMV Motor Vehicle Classifications)
