2 Answers
Hubei Province license plate numbers begin with 'E', and the license plate codes for various regions in Hubei Province are: Ea for Wuhan City, Eb for Huangshi City, Ec for Shiyan City, Ed for Jingzhou City, Ee for Yichang City, Ef for Xiangfan City, Eg for Ezhou City, Eh for Jingmen City, Ej for Huanggang City, Ek for Xiaogan City, El for Xianning City, Em for Xiantao City, En for Qianjiang City, Ep for Shennongjia Forestry District, Eq for Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture. The functions of license plates are: 1. Identification of vehicles; 2. Indication of the vehicle's registered region; 3. Access to the vehicle owner's and registration information based on the license plate.
I often drive for travel, especially to visit places in Hubei. Speaking of Hubei license plates, they start with the character 'E', which is a Chinese character representing the province. In China, the first character of a license plate is the provincial code, and Hubei has long used the character 'E', derived from an ancient place name. The following letters indicate the city, for example, 'E A' represents Wuhan, 'E B' is Huangshi, and I've seen these many times. The design of license plates is mainly for vehicle management, making it easier for traffic police to identify the origin of vehicles. If you're an out-of-towner driving into Hubei, it's common to see license plates starting with 'E', especially on highways. During regular car maintenance, I also pay attention to the clarity of the license plate to avoid it being blurred. In short, Hubei license plates always start with 'E', and remembering this is always correct.
