Texas puts residents in the driver's seat on new plate design

Texans will have a week — beginning Monday at noon — to go to www.txdot.gov and vote for one of the four new designs or for the existing plate. If Texans pick the current design, it will be modified to show seven, rather than six digits.
Why change the plate at all? Well, it's a matter of math.
The current design was introduced in 2000. Since then, TxDOT has manufactured about 31.5 million sets of the plate.
Davio said TxDOT is about to run out of possible number and letter combinations using the six-digit sequencing system.
The new plate will sport an additional, seventh digit.
"We're just running out of those patterns, and the patterns need to be unique," Davio said.
