Number plates ban

-

MORE than 400 number plates have been banned from use under the new “68” vehicle registrati­ons.

The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) is holding back combinatio­ns it feels “may cause offence, embarrassm­ent or are in poor taste”.

Personalis­ed plates can see 6 being used as a B, G, C or S, while 8 can represent B. Because of this, the DVLA has banned 436 plates, including **68 OMB, *A68 USE, BA68 TAD, OR68 ASM, as well as the potentiall­y political message EU68 BAD.
