Plain-English Summary

This bill would establish federal standards to prevent drivers from evading tolls by obscuring or tampering with license plates, and would require states to implement measures ensuring plates remain visible and readable for toll collection systems. The legislation would likely affect highway users, toll road operators, and state transportation departments by setting clearer rules about plate visibility and potentially imposing penalties for evasion. The bill aims to increase toll revenue collection and reduce fraud on the nation's toll roads and bridges.
