UPSC CAPF – 2018
The correct answer is C) commercial vehicles available on rent for self-driving.
In India, number plates are color-coded to indicate the type of vehicle and its usage. A black number plate with yellow lettering is specifically designated for commercial vehicles that are available for rent for self-driving. This distinguishes them from regular private vehicles (white plate, black letters) and traditional commercial vehicles like taxis or trucks (yellow plate, black letters).
Other number plate colors in India include:
– White plate, black letters: Private vehicles
– Yellow plate, black letters: Commercial vehicles (taxi, bus, truck etc.)
– Light blue plate, white letters: Vehicles belonging to foreign consulates/embassies
– Red plate: Used by state governors and the President of India, also temporary registration
– Green plate: Electric vehicles (white letters for private, yellow for commercial)
– Black plate, white letters: Rental vehicles (formerly, now phased out for yellow on black)
– Black plate, yellow letters: Self-drive rental vehicles (introduced later)
