And i noticed two things every single license plate is different....there either black on white....or white and red an the yellow on and so on. We couldn't finger it out does someone want to explain to me the crazy license plates you guys have...and the other thing i noticed....is about half the people there their shirt is too big :blink:

blue on white are automobile plates
black on white are truck plates
yellow plates are dealer plates, as are red on white plates.
red plates are government plates

you are correct.

and personalized plates may have anything from the trillium to a university logo as well.

Puppet, You forgot the most important logo...

The Startrek Symbol.


I just checked the MTO site... the startrek plate doesnt exist anymore :o

There is also the red letter on white, this is a NEW dealer plate. I've noticed these more screwed onto the cars rather then when you take it one a test drive with the yellow plate.

So it's probably just the new dealer plates, but they look like the government ones

nobody listens to me :P

I was surprised to see the new dealer plate.. i honestly thought it was an alberta plate at first.

Here are some other Ontario plate tidbits:

Plates prefixed by 'HV' = historical vehicle

Plates prefixed by 'VE' then a number = HAM radio operator (with plate matching radio licence)

Plate prefixed by 'CC' = foreign canadian consolate vehicle (be wary of these cars they do not follow canadian laws)

Yeah, I think they let their licensing deal with Paramount lapse. Probably not enough Trekkers paying the frieght, I mean a graphic plate is $78.85 and a personalized graphic plate is $319.60 :blink:

NefCanuck
(whose personalized plate back in '00 cost him "only" $210)

just to add a bit more to your comments,

yellow, black writing, old dealer plates now being used for mechanic plates only, you are not allowed to drive with these after bussiness hours.

white plate, red writing also says DRL on it, its the new dealer plates, you can have these plates and drive them all the time. no time limit

Nope, I ain't no Trekker.. I'm an Anime Geek, get it right :D and my plates reference something that only an anime geek would get... who was willing to watch dubbed anime (Talk about a subset of a subset ;) )

So I Just Came Back From Toronto - scoobasteve - 06-17-2005

I dont watch anime. but i think you should post the plates up and see if anyone gets the meaning. haha
