Why Are License Plates More Likely to Fall Off on Rainy Days?

[DelKate]

It's not that license plates are more likely to fall off on rainy days, but rather that they are more prone to being lost when the vehicle is driving through water. This is because when a vehicle moves through water, the resistance from the water is hundreds of times greater than the resistance from air under normal conditions. Many license plates that get washed away are secured with only two screws, making them easily lifted by the water flow. Here are three methods to prevent losing your license plate: 1. Reduce your speed before entering a waterlogged section (do not stall the engine midway); 2. Strengthen the fixation of the license plate by using four screws as required; 3. Secure the license plate directly to the bumper with bolts.
