2 Answers
There is no license plate that starts with 'Fang E' in reality. The abbreviations for license plates in various provinces of China are as follows: 1. 22 provinces: Liaoning (Liao), Jilin (Ji), Heilongjiang (Hei), Hebei (Ji), Shanxi (Jin), Jiangsu (Su), Zhejiang (Zhe), Anhui (Wan), Fujian (Min), Jiangxi (Gan), Shandong (Lu), Henan (Yu), Hubei (E), Hunan (Xiang), Guangdong (Yue), Hainan (Qiong), Sichuan (Chuan), Guizhou (Gui), Yunnan (Yun), Shaanxi (Shaan), Gansu (Gan), Qinghai (Qing). 2. Four municipalities: Beijing (Jing), Tianjin (Jin), Shanghai (Hu), Chongqing (Yu). 3. Five autonomous regions: Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region (Ning), Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (Xin), Tibet Autonomous Region (Zang), Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region (Gui), Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (Meng). 4. Two special administrative regions: Yue Z is for vehicles entering the mainland from Hong Kong and Macau.
I've been driving for most of my life and have seen countless license plates on the road. The notation 'Fang E' seems incorrect—it's likely a typo for 'Yue E'. 'Yue' stands for Guangdong Province, and 'e' is part of the series of letters, for example, 'Yue E' refers to the Foshan area. I remember once on a business trip to Foshan, the taxi had a license plate starting with 'Yue E', which is quite common. License plate numbers are crucial for us drivers; getting a letter wrong might cause issues when checking for violations. Everyone should be careful when writing license plate numbers, ensuring provincial abbreviations like Yue (Guangdong), Jing (Beijing), and Hu (Shanghai) are correct to avoid confusion.
