House Bill 561 amends the Transportation Code to authorize the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles to issue distinguishing license plates for a vehicle operated by a motor carrier for the purpose of picking up and delivering mail, parcels, and packages if the vehicle is an all-terrain vehicle, a golf cart, a neighborhood electric vehicle, a recreational off-highway vehicle, or a utility vehicle and meets certain equipment criteria. The bill limits the operation of a vehicle bearing the license plates to certain roadways and provides for the operation of such a vehicle on the property of a subdivision or condominium managed or regulated by a property owners' association and within certain municipalities and counties.
