Glasgow License Plates on Vehicles Displayed for Sale ordinance (§ 380.080)

Chapter 380: Licensing Requirements · Article II. Vehicle Licensing

In short: You can't display or hold a vehicle for sale with license plates other than your own (the dealer's or the owner's). If a vehicle is on consignment with a dealer, it may carry the owner's plates.

Our plain-English summary, not the official text or legal advice. The ordinance below is what counts.

No person shall show, exhibit, display or have in possession for the purpose of sale any motor vehicle bearing or displaying thereon any number or license plates except those of the dealer or owner so displaying said motor vehicle; provided, however, that where the motor vehicle is placed on consignment with a dealer by the owner thereof, there may be displayed a number or license plate issued to the owner thereof.
