License Plates Deadline Near Obtain vehicle license plates “over the counter” to make sure you have them ready for display on your automobile Nevember 1, the State Highway department ad vises. Anyone ordering license plates by mail this late in the year is taking the risk of not receiving them in time. There is no provision in State laws whereby there may be an ex tension of time in which to renew motor vehicle licenses. Therefore, the October 31 deadline for lic ense renewals remains unchanged, and anyone operating a motor ve hicle without a new license on November 1 stands the chance of being stopped by a law enforce ment officer. There may be those who must, for one reason or another, make application by mail. Where this is the case, one should get a money order receipt. A personal check stub is not considered acceptable evidence that a license fee has been paid. The Highway department ad vised that there were no long waiting lines at any of the offices in the State, and anyone who wanted to get prompt service could normally obtain plates in a few minutes. D.
