Drive behind a Amish horse and buggy in Pennsylvania and you'll see a fluorescent orange, triangular placard attached to the gray and black buggy and maybe a few cute kids too.

However, if a proposal in the State House becomes law, you'll see something else -- a Pennsylvania license plate. Democratic Rep. Mike Hanna of Centre County wants Amish to register buggies like other vehicles and display license plates as well. The money derived from the registration would go toward road repairs where the steel wheels of the buggies have caused damage.

So how would buggie registration fit into the Amish way of life? Dr. Steven Nolt, a professor of history at the Young Center for Anabaptist and Pietist Studies at Elizabethtown College is on Thursday's Smart Talk to discuss.
