Where is the license plate with the prefix 'Dan K' from?
2 Answers
As of now, there is no license plate number in China that starts with 'Dan K'. The abbreviations for license plate prefixes of various provinces and regions across the country are as follows: Beijing is Jing, Tianjin is Jin, Shanghai is Hu, Chongqing is Yu, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region is Meng, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region is Xin, Tibet Autonomous Region is Zang, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region is Ning, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region is Gui, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is Gang, Macao Special Administrative Region is Ao, Heilongjiang Province is Hei, Jilin Province is Ji, Liaoning Province is Liao, Shanxi Province is Jin, Hebei Province is Ji, Qinghai Province is Qing, Shandong Province is Lu, Henan Province is Yu, Jiangsu Province is Su, Anhui Province is Wan, Zhejiang Province is Zhe, Fujian Province is Min, Jiangxi Province is Gan, Hunan Province is Xiang, Hubei Province is E, Guangdong Province is Yue, Hainan Province is Qiong, Gansu Province is Gan, Shaanxi Province is Shaan, Guizhou Province is Gui, Yunnan Province is Yun, Sichuan Province is Chuan.
Oh, speaking of the license plate 'Dan K', I need to clarify a common misunderstanding. In China's license plate system, regional abbreviations are usually the province or city abbreviation followed by a letter. The 'Dan' you mentioned in 'Dan K' might refer to Dandong City, but Dandong belongs to Liaoning Province, and its standard license plate prefix starts with 'Liao F', like 'Liao F12345'. The letter 'K' might be part of the following number sequence and doesn’t indicate the region itself. I often pay attention to such details on the road—license plate recognition can help quickly identify a vehicle's origin and avoid misjudging traffic rules in unfamiliar places. If you see a license plate like 'Dan K', it might be a typo or an outdated record. Next time you spot a license plate from another region, I suggest noting down the province abbreviation and looking it up. This can be quite useful for road trips or when buying a car to understand the vehicle's background. Maintaining this habit can also help avoid unnecessary disputes.
