Summary

Existing law authorizes a person who is a recipient of the Army Medal of Honor, Navy Medal of Honor, Air Force Medal of Honor, Army Distinguished Service Cross, Navy Cross, Air Force Cross, or Purple Heart to apply for special license plates for his or her vehicle. The person's surviving spouse may retain the special license plates, subject to certain conditions. Existing law exempts these recipients from payment of vehicle registration fees and payment of charges under the Vehicle License Fee Law. This bill would authorize another surviving member of the deceased medal recipient's family, as defined, to retain one of the special license plates as a family heirloom, subject to the condition that the special license plates are not valid for use for vehicle registration purposes or for the specified exemption from fees and charges by a person other than the person issued the special license plates and the surviving spouse of that person.
