Some plates were made of leather and others porcelain. By 1908, a \u201cmore properly manufactured\u201d license plate was available. Oregon is also said to have had license plates for multiple specialty groups such as grocery deliverers, farmers, and taxies. Today, Oregon has about 3 million licensed drivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first automobile arrived in Oregon in 1899. By 1920, the state required driver licenses. Eleven years later, the DMV started driving testing for licenses. These days, there are about 4.1 million registered vehicles, from which around 3.2 million are passenger vehicles. Each year, the DMV in Oregon processes about 850,000 vehicle titles, and issues about 400,000 license plates.
