On the back of the licence, the class of vehicle the holder is allowed to drive, along with any conditions or restrictions are listed.

Conditions:
S=Must wear spectacles (glasses) or contact lenses while driving (for people with minor visual impairment)
N=Must not drive at night (for people with demonstrably poor night vision)
L=Must not drive above a certain speed limit (for people on a provisional licence)

M=Must carry medication (for people with chronic health complaints which may affect driving)
C=Not permitted to transport children (for people convicted of crimes involving children)

A driver of a passenger vehicle that carries fare paying passengers, such as a taxi, bus, school bus or tourist coach, must have an appropriate licence for the type of vehicle and a Public Passenger Vehicle Driver Authority which is issued separately by the Department of Transport.

********************************

Licence plates in Arcacia are, well, boring. They are functional. That is all. They are white, with reflective blue lettering.



The first two letters indicate the district or territory where the vehicle is registered. PR=Providence, IY=Isle of Yorke, RD=Redding, CI= Cyrene Islands, PI=Pioneer Islands, BP=Bronx Province, SV=Saint Vincent.

The first two numbers indicate the year the vehicle was registered.

The last two letters and one number are unique to the vehicle.

Wow, you've gone above and beyond everyone else.

I just modelled on my actual driver's licence.

"because everyone was doing it" haha Great licences and plates actually!

The licenses and license plates were considered by Julien and Bruce a "flu" because everybody started making them all at once

All at once? I started first :roll: It was considered as flu by Dryan (If I remember well) at first, because it was expanding fast.

I did it second...

Also, the next flu will be...national soccer leagues? Something sports-related?

Funny you say that Bruce, I have mine all ready to post

Wow...I already posted mine though. Ha!

Thats true, you did beat me to it....

On a side note, this isn't off from Dan's plates at all....
