New Washington license plate plan revised
The Washington Department of Licensing has modified plans for the new seven-character license plate.
The Associated Press
The Washington Department of Licensing has modified plans for the new seven-character license plate.
It's going with the recommendation of police agencies who say a combination of three letters followed by four numbers will be easier to remember. The department had announced plans last month for a more-complicated arrangement of letters and numbers.
The three letter-four number configuration will yield 138 million possible combinations.
The new plates will be issued as the supply of older six-character plates are used up.
