## About this plate

LONG-TERM TRAILER, the second time-encoded serial in this group and the one with the longer horizon. Worth flagging for the parse API: a Maine trailer plate reading "31 12345" is not a 31-thousand-something serial, it is a 2031 expiry with sequence 12345, and any validator that treats the leading pair as sequence will sort Maine trailers into nonsense.
