Share the Road

Iowa has a Share The Road specialty license plate available for purchase at any county license plate bureau. The plate is sponsored by the Iowa Department of Transportation. Funding from the plate is directed to the Iowa Bicycle Coalition for safety education and motorist awareness.

Show your love of cycling and help make the roads safer for everyone. Whether you're a competitive racer, daily commuter or recreational rider, the new Share the Road license plate is the ultimate cycling accessory. Transform your car into a bicycling billboard and remind others to share the road every time you drive.

Numbered plates are available for $35 with a $10 annual renewal fee and can be obtained at your treasurers license plate bureau. Personalized plates with up to 5 characters are available for $60 with a $15 annual renewal fee. Where is your county treasurer? http://www.iowadot.gov/mvd/ovs/countytreasurersmap.htm
