Bill: Let new car buyers in Georgia register for two years

March 5, 2015

New car buyers in Georgia would be able to initially register them for two years instead of one under a measure the House approved this week.

House Bill 147 — sponsored by state Rep. Alan Powell, R-Hartwell — cleared the House on a unanimous vote Tuesday and is now pending in Senate Public Safety Committee.

The bill would not apply to new car owners seeking prestige or special license plates.
