Does this mean I have to register in every town that I commute through? Meaning home town, destination tow, and all towns I travel through?
Welcome to Massachusetts. I have seen those license plates. Yes, I really have seen those plates. It is a real oddity.
I think that Hingham actually voted it in.
You would have to research every the minutes of ever single town meeting to see is this has been adopted.
You would be okay into another town with the wrong plate. You really can't get into trouble for this.
LOL
