Same grammar as the small plate, heavier ranges: 70–79 is a bus or van, 80–97 a goods vehicle, 98–99 special equipment, with the syllable still drawn from the private-use set. A private four-tonne truck wears this seven-character decode to this day.

## About this plate

The large non-commercial plate: 440 x 200 mm with 105 mm characters, for large buses and for goods and special vehicles at or above four tonnes. Article 5(1)'s proviso names Annex 5 alongside Annex 1, so it too stayed on the two-digit class code through both reforms, a private 4-tonne truck registered today still wears a seven-character mark. Article 2(2)1 lets an emergency vehicle, and a vehicle whose front sensors clash with a 440 mm plate, substitute the ordinary size at the front.

## About the format

Digit skeleton only; printed mark is 52가3018 (Annex 5's own sample, drawn with a passenger code).
