    Not quite - from 1974-1986:


    Back in the '50s and early '60s, they used a similarly colored plate with black lettering.

    The real ploy behind these new plates was just to raise money for the state as they are in dire straits. I believe when they announced it couple of weeks ago the uprising of the people cancelled the project or modified it.. Just go and try to renew license,registration or anything else at DMV and expect to pay big time....

    Someone was telling me that this was shot down, and we will NOT be getting new plates. But I can't find info. Anyone?

    I think it's still a go. Paterson said something about killing it if the legislature could cut from the budget the same amount of revenue that the plates would bring in, around $120 million, but I haven't heard anything since then.
