from what I remember, there are specialty plates, maybe when you renew next year you can pick something better. I agree...I have the snow ones, our jeep has the rocks one..neither is awesome..

ewwww......I don't like the "arches" one.....talk about over-used worn out ! I don't think the 'ski' ones are much better though. I finally had my DH make me a frame at work that is wider on the outside to cover most of that up.

I like Nevadas' plates design wise, but I'll trade out my Utah ones for Montana ones anyday.....

THAT'S GOOD NEWS TO ME.....EVERYONE OUGHT TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND MOTORCYCLE LAWS

MAYBE THEN, PEOPLE IN CARS WOULD NOT RUN OVER THEM SO EASILY

And maybe this state would pass helmet laws and outlaw crotch rockets. I wouldn't even fathom getting on a bike without full protective gear especially the way Utah drivers drive. Im afraid in my gas gussling SUV for my life

That's one thing about Utah, I enjoy. The fact that I can choose if I want to wear a helmet on the bike, or not.
And, from what I have personally observed here in Utah, the drivers are VERY COURTEOUS to motorcycle riders. I applaud them for that.
The biggest worry on a bike, is the car ahead of you, slamming on their brakes. So, the smart thing is to always keep enough distance between the car ahead of you, and you. In SoCal, trying to do that was next to impossible, because a car would get into that space and you'd have to back off. That has NEVER happened to me here in Utah (knock wood) and for that I am so grateful!!

This is the first time I've heard something good about our drivers

I don't like the young ones on the crotch rockets going 100 plus on the highway with no helmet. Do they even realize what would happen to them if they hit something???
