The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles does not consider the wording along the bottom of the plate to be a primary feature, and a frame can cover it. A frame may cover the top area of the plate, as long as law enforcement is able to identify the state that issued the plate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
