Governor Marry Fallin unveiled the new license plate design for the state of Oklahoma, titled “Explore Oklahoma.” The plate is light blue with the state bird, a scissor-tailed flycatcher, in white, in the middle. At the bottom of the plate is the Oklahoma Department of Tourism and Recreation’s website, TravelOk.com, and will feature two boxes at the top for registration decals. The plates will be printed on prismatic sheeting to enhance their visibility at night.

Governor Fallin says that the new plates will help aid law enforcement officers at night, but the Oklahoma Tax Commissioner says it will help in other ways too. Commissioner Dawn Cash says that the state would gain from increasing registration compliance because “The Tax Commission estimates that the state is owed approximately $4 million from thousands of Oklahomans who are out of compliance…”

Drivers are scheduled to receive their new license plates beginning in January.
