In addition to the Ocean City license plates, there’s more license plate news for Marylanders.

As of October 1st, a new law goes into effect that says motorcyclists will need license plates that are 4 inches high and 7 inches wide vs. the current size of 8 1/2 inches high and 4 1/2 inches wide. The new license plates should fit better into the frames and are what most other states have. Because new plates aren’t all available, motorcyclists aren’t required to have their new license plates by October 1st.
