A Pennsylvania lawmaker plans on introducing legislation that would require front license plates on vehicles . State Sen. Katie Muth — a Democrat representing Berks, Chester and Montgomery counties — wrote a memo planning to introduce legislation on this last week. She says the reason for this is for public safety.

Pennsylvania could soon join more than two dozen states requiring drivers to have two license plates on their vehicles. Why it matters: State Sen. Katie Muth (D-44) — who serves parts of Berks, Chester and Montgomery Counties — says her proposal will improve public safety by making it easier to catch motorists involved in hit-and-runs or those who otherwise break traffic laws.
