Friends,

In new registrations, number plates are issued by government.

I'm talking about old plates that individual people got made by them self.

Is their any regulation in colors & sizes.

I mean, front one should be "white & black"

back should be "Yellow & Black"

Is it a must? Some have black-white in back & in some car modifications, they use

various colors. Is their any law?

Guys, there is a gazetted law concerning the license plate.

For pre English alphabet registration cars ,Rear plate - Black letters & numbers in luminous yellow background,

Front plate - White letters & numbers in black background,

No other letters of signs Eg WP,SP, D, P or the state emblem cannot be displayed .Even the "Sri" cannot be displayed as" -". All pre 89 cars (registration prior to December 88 if im not mistaken) should carry "Sri' .Violations can be penalized by spot fines.

I think for busses & lorries (pre alphabet reg), it should be red letters & numbers in white background for both plates.

As far as I remember, the "Sri" was replaced by " - " on 1st of January 1990. smile.gif

One of my friends warned by a cop recently to remove the WP from the number plate, it was WP 300- one. :angry-smiley-048:

Yesterday I saw a Corono/Premio diesel car bearing WP65-D-XXXX. It looked like exactly a RMV number plate, included Gov symbol even. Do RMV issue such plates???

D means Diesel :rolleyes:

P means Petrol

If the D or P is in red instead of black its a permit vehicle.

FYI 65- didn't come with D or P or even WP and its not legal to put anything you want in a numberplate either.
