## About this plate

PATRULLAS, police and public-security fleets of every level below the federal police. A 2000-Acuerdo rule that the 2016 NOM does not repeat is worth recording here: ARTICULO NOVENO of the Acuerdo required that "los caracteres de identificación de las placas para las unidades de las diferentes corporaciones policiacas y de vigilancia deben corresponder al número económico que porte la unidad", the plate had to match the fleet number painted on the car.
