Existing law requires a vehicle to display a license plate, issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles, with tabs that indicate the month and year the vehicle registration expires. Existing law authorizes the department to conduct a pilot program, until January 1, 2020, if certain conditions are met, to evaluate the use of alternatives to stickers, tabs, license plates, and registration cards. In the conduct of a pilot program under these provisions, existing law limits the exchange of data between the department and any electronic device or the provider of any electronic device to the data necessary to display evidence of registration compliance and prohibits the department from receiving or retaining any information regarding the movement, location, or use of a vehicle participating in the pilot program.
