2 Answers
Shanghai Hu-D represents the license plate within the urban area of Shanghai. Other license plates in the urban area of Shanghai include: Hu-A, Hu-B, Hu-E, Hu-F, Hu-G, Hu-H, Hu-J, Hu-K, Hu-L, Hu-M, Hu-N; Shanghai suburban license plates include: Hu-C; private taxi license plates include: Hu-AX, Hu-BX, Hu-DX. License plate refers to the vehicle plate, which is a panel hung on the front and rear of the vehicle, usually made of aluminum, plastic, or stickers, displaying the vehicle's registration number, registration area, or other basic information. The license plate is a numbering system for vehicles, and its main function is to identify the province, city, or county to which the vehicle belongs. The vehicle management office can trace the owner of the vehicle through the license plate.
As a taxi driver working in Shanghai, I'd like to talk about the Hu-D license plates. The Hu-D plates in Shanghai aren't tied to any specific district like Pudong New Area or Huangpu District—they're a city-wide license plate series exclusively designated for taxis. I've seen plenty of license plates: Hu-A and Hu-B are for private cars, mainly operating in urban areas; Hu-C is for suburban vehicles, which can't drive in the city center or they'll get fined; as for Hu-D, they're all used by taxi drivers like me, making it convenient for passengers to hail and stop. This license plate allocation is determined by the transportation department to prevent vehicle chaos. A quick reminder: when taking a taxi, look for Hu-D plates—usually with blue or yellow bodies—and you can hop in if the 'For Hire' sign is on. The last five digits of the plate are random numbers, while the initial letter only indicates the vehicle category, not the geographical location. Next time you have questions like this, it's more practical to chat directly with a taxi driver—they frequently take passengers to various districts. Remembering these license plate rules will make your travels smoother.
