Historic plate, eh? Doesn't Virginia say something along the lines that you can only drive to and from car shows or race track or...? As well as only driving a few hundred miles a year?

In Virginia the historic plate is supposed to be for collectible vehicles driven to and from events. It also allows for occasional driving. I believe there is also some limits besides those but they aren't really enforced. The reality is that most cops don't really both and some people get away with driving cars that have vintage plates every day of the week. There's no state safety inspection which is the primary reason I'm doing it.

Lived in NOVA for 15 years. The struggle was very real.
