The Significance of License Plates: Beyond Identification

License plates do more than just differentiate vehicles; they hold several important meanings:

• Identifying Origin: Each province is assigned a unique number sequence, making it easy to identify a vehicle’s origin. For example, seeing the number 29 immediately tells us the vehicle is from Hanoi.
• Vehicle Management: License plates are fundamental for authorities to manage and control vehicles, ensuring public safety and order.
• Regional Connection: License plates foster pride and connection to one’s hometown. Many people living far from home feel a sense of nostalgia and emotion when they see a familiar license plate.
