§ 46.2-1948. License under this chapter prerequisite to receiving dealer's license plates; insurance required; C...
No T&M vehicle manufacturer, distributor, or dealer, unless licensed under this chapter, shall be entitled to receive or maintain any dealer's license plates. It shall be unlawful to use or permit the use of any dealer's license plates for which there is no liability insurance coverage or a certificate of self-insurance as defined in § 46.2-368 on any T&M vehicle. No dealer's license plates shall be issued unless the dealer certifies to the Department that there is liability insurance coverage or a certificate of self-insurance with respect to each dealer's license plate to be issued. Such liability insurance or a certificate of self-insurance shall be maintained for each dealer's license plate for so long as the registration for the dealer's license plate remains valid without regard to whether the plate is actually being used on a T&M vehicle. If insurance or a certificate of self-insurance is not so maintained, the dealer's license plate shall be surrendered to the Department. The Commissioner shall revoke any dealer's license plate for which there is no insurance or a certificate of self-insurance. The Commissioner may also revoke any dealer's license plate that has been used in any way not authorized by the provisions of this title.
