'''[[wp:Vehicle registration plate|Vehicle license plates]]''' are introduced in [[Grand Theft Auto III]] with the player's ability to explore in a three-dimensional environment making plates viewable. The feature has very little use aside for cosmetic purposes. | '''[[:wp:Vehicle registration plate|Vehicle license plates]]''' are introduced in [[Grand Theft Auto III]] with the player's ability to explore in a three-dimensional environment making plates viewable.

In [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], license plates do not have an actual letter-number combination. Every vehicle that has a license plate has "LIBERTY CITY" in large blue capital letters, with the exception of the immovable trailers found ingame, which all bear the registration "ON-10N EC". Beneath the registration name is "[[Liberty City State]]". These license plates are based directly on current [[wp:New York (state)|New York]] license plates, as seen [http://www.netstate.com/states/links/images/ny_license_plate.jpg here]. It is possible that the plates were intended to have a letter-number combination, much like the vehicles in GTA San Andreas. | In [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], license plates do not have an actual letter-number combination.

The license plates in [[Grand Theft Auto V]] are indicated to be registered in the [[state of San Andreas]] and are modeled after the design specifications of [[wp:Vehicle registration plates of California#Baseplates 1963 to present|the Californian baseplate design for 1994—1998 and 2000—present]]. As opposed to adopting a cursive typeface for the state name, however, the San Andreas plate uses a block typeface reminiscent of Californian baseplates from 1987 to 1994. The plate numbers are also implied to be dynamic, following a eight-character format that consists of a two-digit numbers followed by three letters and a three-digit number (i.e. "12ABC123"), similar to the format used on Californian plates since 1980 ("1ABC123"). | The license plates in [[Grand Theft Auto V]] are indicated to be registered in the [[San Andreas in GTA V|state of San Andreas]] and are modeled after the design specifications of [[wp:Vehicle registration plates of California#Baseplates 1963 to present|the Californian baseplate design for 1994—1998 and 2000—present]].
