How many dealer plates can a dealer purchase based on the total sales?

In Virginia, the regulations regarding dealer plates stipulate that a dealer can acquire plates based on the number of licensed salespersons. Specifically, dealers are allowed to purchase up to four dealer plates for each licensed salesperson associated with the dealership. This provision is designed to accommodate the sales activities of multiple staff members, allowing them to demonstrate and operate vehicles as needed.

This approach effectively supports business operations by ensuring that each salesperson has access to a dealer plate for professional use, facilitating the process of selling and managing inventory. Understanding the rationale behind this regulation helps dealers to ensure compliance while optimizing their sales resources.
