Abstract:

This research evaluated the potential costs and benefits of doing away with license plate registration stickers as part of the registration renewal process for Pennsylvania. The research consisted of a comprehensive literature review, a survey of U.S. and Canadian licensing agencies, a cost/benefit analysis of eliminating license plate stickers, and an assessment of related law enforcement issues and public information and education (PI&E) campaigns conducted by other agencies that have stopped using license plate registration stickers. The result is a set of options and recommendations for Pennsylvania and an evaluation plan. The recommendations favored elimination of a sticker registration program for several reasons, including simplicity, cost savings, elimination of potential sticker theft, and positive reports from similarly adapted programs.
