A proposed state law would require buggies to have plates on their vehicles.

Representative Joan Ballweg has requested a draft of legislation that would create a law requiring buggies to be registered with the state.

Ballweg says a fee would be imposed on any animal drawn vehicle that travels on roadways. She says the decision would lie with each county or local government, and the money raised by the registration fees would stay in the county or municipality, to be used for transportation funding.

Ballweg introduced a similar bill in 2005.
