Referred to Committee on Rules.
AB1178,1,2 1An Act to amend 341.15 (3) (intro.) of the statutes; relating to: penalties for

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, with certain exceptions, a registration plate must be placed
at the front and the back of a motor vehicle. Plates must be firmly affixed, displayed
horizontally and conspicuously, and maintained so as to be legible and unobstructed.
A person who operates a motor vehicle with a plate that violates any of these
requirements may be required to forfeit not more than $200. Under the bill, the
maximum forfeiture remains not more than $200 for a first offense, but increases to
not more than $400 for a second or subsequent offense.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
