About this plate
THE YELLOW PLATE. A SCOPE CHANGE, dated: under vyhláška 243/2001 Sb. the yellow plate covered all "zvláštní motorová vozidla" plus agricultural and forestry tractors and their trailers, and vyhláška 291/2004 Sb. narrowed it on 1 June 2004 to tractors, tractor trailers and self-propelled works machines. Vehicles that left the yellow class on that date moved to the white one; no exchange was required, so yellow plates outside the current scope are lawfully on the road and a parse API must not infer the current scope from an old plate.
