Which province does the license plate 'Su' belong to?
2 Answers
The character 'Su' on a license plate represents Jiangsu Province, indicating that the vehicle is from Jiangsu Province. More information about license plates is as follows: 1. SuA Nanjing, SuB Wuxi, SuC Xuzhou, SuD Changzhou, SuE Suzhou, SuF Nantong, SuG Lianyungang, SuH Huaian, SuJ Yancheng, SuK Yangzhou, SuL Zhenjiang, SuM Taizhou, SuN Suqian, SuU is an additional code for Suzhou. 2. For car license plates, the motor vehicle registration authority code is located in the center at the top of the plate, with Chinese characters and English letters arranged horizontally. 3. For motorcycle license plates, the motor vehicle registration authority code is located on the left side of the plate, with Chinese characters and English letters arranged vertically.
Hey, I remember when I used to drive long distances, I often saw license plates starting with 'Su' on the road. 'Su' is the abbreviation for Jiangsu, like Nanjing's plates are Su A, and Wuxi's are Su B, which are different city codes within Jiangsu Province. That's how the Chinese license plate system is designed—the first Chinese character represents the province, and 'Su' definitely stands for Jiangsu. I once wondered why it's divided this way—it's because Jiangsu is economically developed with heavy traffic flow, so 'Su' plates are especially common on highways. Once, when I drove from Shanghai back to my hometown and passed through Jiangsu, the sheer number of 'Su' plates left a deep impression on me. Actually, after driving for a long time, you can recognize the province from the license plate at a glance—for example, 'Lu' is Shandong, and 'Su' is Jiangsu—which is quite useful for judging where nearby vehicles are from. In short, just remember 'Su' means Jiangsu, and next time you see it, you won't be confused.
