UK drivers are being urged to make sure their licence plates are road legal ahead of the new "23" number vehicle registration coming next month.
The rollout on March 1 will impact drivers in Scotland, England and Wales as the first licence plate change of 2023. The "72" number plate was previously issued back in September - representing all new cars registered in the last half of 2022 - while "22" was rolled out the previous March.
Licence plates must adhere to certain specifications to be road legal and many changes have been made to them through the years that drivers may not be aware of. Motorists are also being warned not to change or purposefully obscure their registration plate, as this could lead to a £1,000 fine.
