    49-415A.  CONGRESSIONAL MEDAL OF HONOR LICENSE PLATES. (1) Congressional
medal of honor license plates are available to applicants who furnish proof of
entitlement by certification from the United States Veterans Administration
attesting to their status as a congressional medal of honor recipient.
    (2)  The license plates shall be provided free of charge. The applicant
shall pay the regular annual registration fees required by section 49-402 or
49-434(1), Idaho Code. The provisions of this section shall not apply to any
vehicle with a registered maximum gross weight over twenty-six thousand
(26,000) pounds. If the plate holder transfers his title or interest to a
vehicle registered under this section, the plates may be transferred to
another vehicle owned by the plate holder. If the plates are unexpired, the
plate holder shall be given credit for the unexpired portion of the
registration fee against the new registration fee. The transfer fee specified
by section 49-431(1), Idaho Code, shall apply.
    (3)  These provisions shall apply to the vehicle to which the plates were
originally issued and to any vehicle subsequently purchased and owned by the
medal of honor recipient, except that the privilege shall not extend to more
than two (2) vehicles at a time.
    (4)  Congressional medal of honor license plates may be retained and
displayed on vehicles owned by the surviving spouse of a deceased
congressional medal of honor recipient. In addition, the surviving spouse of a
deceased congressional medal of honor recipient is eligible to reapply for and
shall be issued congressional medal of honor license plates if the deceased
congressional medal of honor recipient died on or after January 1 of the five
(5) years preceding the date of reapplication for the plates. Such plates
shall be used on a vehicle owned by the surviving spouse.
