Private Reg / Licence Plate
Hi,
Just curious really. I have a private plate in the UK and I'm wondering what the deal is with private plates in Canada (Ontario if the rules are different per province). I know that there is not the same rules around letters and number combo's and also I believe plates always stay with the owners when you change cars even if they aren't private? Just generally wondering how do plates work over there? Are private plates expensive? What are the limits on what you can have etc?? Ails |

Here in NS I pay $129.28 per year. All registration plates are owned by the Department of Motor Vehicles and you 'rent' them yearly.
There are restrictions but you go in to the Department of Motor Vehicles with your choice, they tap it into the computer and if it's available you purchase it for a year. Every year thereafter, you can renew it or change it :) |

You may have a personalized plate in Ontario provided it meets the requirements.

My plate is S0C7. It was a present but iirc it was $50 on top of the registration fee. You can have up to 7 characters and no obscenities the DMV can spot.

Re: Private Reg / Licence Plate
The way I'm reading it you can only buy them direct from the provincial government vehicles dept (equiv of dvla). Does that mean the prices stay sensible and they don't charge silly money for "good" plates like they do in the UK?

There's no market for plates, you can't sell them. You can only request an unused combination of letters, numbers and symbols from the plate issuer.

Can never understand paying for vanity plates. You get bugger all for it and most of the time nobody else understands or cares what it means.

I saw this the other day on Facebook. . . too funny. Nobody would think that "AGINA" is a bad. . . not thinking that the personalized university logo is the letter "V".
