I like the idea since we already have 29845928759832759827986572986743 flavors of license plates in the state.

I agree that CO does have a license plate for just about everything else. Might as well get an EMS one!

Mississippi has them for colleges (almost all in the region), fire, police, nurses, military, veterans, FREEMASONS, even NASCAR along with many others. yet I have yet to see any EMS. it'd be nice to just have a plate like our professional firefighters except with a star of life to the side that said "EMT" or "emergency medical technician" somewhere on it
there's about the same as below
However I got to noticing our ambulances don't even have their own plates. Its pretty much a personalized plate that says "AM" to the left and the number to the right. It's no different than the personalized plate on my car, where as other emergency vehicles get government or official plates.

I would love to have a Colorado EMS plate. A way to show pride without being whackerish, and also just a nice thing to have.

This is what ours looks like. Pretty basic. I have these as personal tags but have my radio number "330" on them. The one shown is just a standard issue RS tag.

In CO, there is no duty to act unless on duty.
Eligibility ought to be CO EMT-B or higher presently employed or a current volunteer with an emergency service in CO.

What benefit would you gain for an EMS License Plate? Do you want the recognition? How would you like to work out elibility? Duty to Act?
hehe... I just have to include this... and no, I dont live in VA.
We dont have duty to act in my area either.
Why is it ok for fire, leo and military to have license plates but not ems? Why are they allowed pride in their service but ems isn't?

There's a way to get it done in WA, the problem is it has to be proposed by an organization, hence IAFF and LEM plates. If there was an organization of EMTs, for example... NAEMT or something like that, an application might fly...
You part of that group?

Why do all your FF buddies have FF plates?

There's over SEVENTY different types of customized plates in Colorado, including these:
If you don't think the normal state plate is pretty enough.
A private Jesuit school
NORAD is defunct
You don't have to be a member of the 10th... the 10th isn't even in Colorado anymore!
Boy Scouts are OK... no EMTs though!
GO FOOTBALL! NO EMS!
HOORAY DOGS! NO EMTS!
My ancestors invented pasta!
LOOK! I'm A FIREFIGHTER! Not an EMT!
I don't see you butthurt over those other plates. Why don't you tell all your FF buddies to get rid of their FF plates before you tell EMS people not to have a plate too.
All you have to do is get enough people to sign a petition, have your local representative sponsor it, and CO will make you a plate. If enough people buy them, the state will keep making them. It is a revenue generator.

i have fire fighter plates... Im a fire fighter ! If they make an emt plate then every person around is going to have one, so taking a six month class or less you should have a license plate? No!

Summit forgot the most important plate of them all:
But the 86-Hour Firefighter Course is such an honor that they "deserve" a license plate?
Personally, I think they are all kind of dumb in general, but if you want one have at it. I just don't see how becoming a firefighter is a much greater accomplishment than becoming an EMT.
