Requires that the expiration dates of these plates vary so that an approximately equal number expires at the end of each month, quarter, or other period consisting of one or more months to coincide with GS 20-288(c) (expiration of licenses for motor vehicle dealer, motor vehicle sales representative, manufacturer, factory branch, factory representative, distributor, distributor branch, distributor representative, or wholesaler). Requires dealer plates to be replaced every four (was, three) years.
