- About this plate
- Nebraska is the best-instrumented specialty index in group midwest-b for a reason worth generalising: the state publishes its plate types as an NLETS CODE TABLE, i.e. as operational data for other states' police systems, complete with per-type character limits. Any state that publishes an NLETS plate-type table is publishing a machine-grade specialty index, and that is a source class the remaining L2 states should be searched for by name.
- About the format
- The pattern shows the common assigned form the DMV writes as '123AB'.
