Car owners in KZN will have to dig into their pockets to pay for changes to their vehicle registration numbers and car plates.
After years of fierce debate proposals to replace town-based registrations such as ND and NP to fall into line with Gauteng and other provinces, the provincial cabinet approved the Department of Transports plan for 'KZN' plates.
The current town-based plates were seen as colonial; subject to abuse,; difficult for police to trace, and running out of digits.
It is understood that the new plates are likely to be aluminium - not plastic - and include, as with the Eastern Cape (elephant) and Limpopo (baobab), tradesmarks. What do you think the trademarks should be for Durban and why?
