Abstract:

A half century ago, North Carolina made its first systematic registration of motor vehicles, instructing drivers to make their own license plate with an assigned set of numbers. Now, the manufacture of 1960 plates will have a uniform color scheme of black on yellow and display 'drive safely.' The plates will be distributed from 80 branch offices, after being pressed and printed through the prison system.
