Where is the 'Tong' license plate from?

Currently, there is no 'Tong' license plate. The first character of a license plate represents the abbreviation of the province where the vehicle is registered, the second is an English letter representing the city-level code of the vehicle's location, followed by a five-digit serial number. The functions of a license plate are: 1. To number and register information for each vehicle; 2. To identify the region to which the vehicle belongs; 3. To trace the owner and registration details of the vehicle based on the license plate. Types of license plates: 1. White represents military and police plates; 2. Blue represents ordinary small vehicles with fewer than 7 seats; 3. Yellow represents ordinary large vehicles; 4. Black represents foreign enterprise plates.
When it comes to license plate prefixes, I believe the character '瞳' does not exist in standard Chinese license plates and might be a miswriting of '鄂', which represents Hubei's license plates. As an avid car enthusiast, I remember that Hubei's license plates all start with '鄂', such as '鄂A' for Wuhan, and others like '鄂B' for Huangshi, '鄂C' for Shiyan, etc. Every time I see cars on the road, the first letter or character of the license plate tells us the vehicle's registration location. This system is quite convenient, helping to avoid issues like car theft or fake plates. If people misremember the license plate prefix, like saying '瞳' represents a certain place, it can easily lead to mistakes. I recommend checking the complete provincial codes on the DMV's official website or simply using a mobile app to scan and recognize the license plate, which saves a lot of hassle. When chatting with fellow car enthusiasts, we all agree that remembering these details is crucial, especially during long-distance trips. Don’t underestimate the trouble caused by not recognizing license plates correctly.
