In a move set to shake up the automotive industry, the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) has announced that DV number plates will now be exclusively issued to car dealerships and garages. The bold restriction aims to curb misuse, improve regulation, and tighten control over vehicle registrations nationwide.
DVLA officials warn that unauthorized possession or use of DV plates could now attract serious penalties, signaling a crackdown that has already sparked heated debates among car owners, traders, and transport operators. Social media is alight with reactions, as drivers and dealers weigh the impact of the new rule on buying, selling, and registering vehicles.
Could this be the start of a nationwide overhaul in vehicle regulation? The DVLA says the era of unchecked DV plates is officially over.
