Kosierowski to host Aug. 10 license plate replacement event

HARRISBURG, July 30 – State Rep. Bridget M. Kosierowski will host a license plate replacement event Aug. 10 to help motorists learn whether they need a new license plate and, if so, to help them apply for a free replacement.

The free event will take place from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Aug. 10 at Northeast Title & Tag, 215 S. State St. in Clarks Summit.

“We’re teaming with the Pennsylvania State Police to help people address an important but sometimes overlooked issue,” Kosierowski said. “State law prohibits driving with a license plate that is illegible – meaning that it’s blistered, peeling or discolored; has lost reflectivity; or has at least one number or letter that can’t be recognized from 50 feet away. Plates with any of these problems qualify for free replacement, and our event will make the whole process easier.”

Motorists must bring their unexpired PA driver’s license and current vehicle registration card in order to apply for a replacement plate.

Residents are encouraged to call Kosierowski’s office at 570-562-2350 to pre-register or learn more about the event.
