About this plate
Sidecode 11 for PASSENGER CARS, from 04-06-2024, the current car issue. The same pattern reached mopeds in 2015 and agricultural trailers in 2021; the trio is the pattern-x-category rule demonstrated. Seed correction: the seed listed categories [car, van] and no first-letter narrowing.
