Hawaii HB543 prohibits the use of license plate flipping devices on motor vehicles.

Hawaii HB543 aims to address the issue of license plate flipping devices, which can switch between multiple license plates or hide a license plate from view. These devices can hinder law enforcement's ability to identify vehicles and pose a threat to public safety. The bill amends Chapter 286 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes to prohibit operating, possessing, purchasing, installing, selling, or distributing these devices. Penalties for violations are established, and the act clarifies that it does not affect rights, duties, penalties, or proceedings that occurred before its effective date.
