Montana Enacts Four Auto Licensing Bills Into Law
Four bills passed by the legislature and signed by the governor become law in Montana. The Largey Abbott license and road bills require registration numbers, badges for chauffeurs, and road safety standards with penalties from fifty to three hundred dollars. Vehicle licenses scale by horsepower, payable annually or upon ownership, with funds split between county and state road funds. The Abbott Road law reorganizes road supervision under a state highway commission. Dealers face licenses and per car fees, while towns may not enact separate auto license laws.
