The term "license plate" is erroneous; the correct term is "registration plate."

And no, you can't have a car registered in more than one state at a time. You also can't have insurance from one state, and registration in another state.

You CAN have a drivers' license for one state, and drive a car registered in a different state.

The correct name in Florida is License Plates not Registration Plates, this is according the The Florida Department of Motor Vehicles and Safetly. Registration plates is an erroneous term here in Florida.
