Article ClippingsSuperstition as to the ill luck attaching to the number 13 has made itself apparent. A Shropshire journal reports that in the county this number fell in the ordinary course to a lady motorist. She promptly had it sent back and said she would prefer a change. The request was acceded to. This, however, was not the end of the difficulty. A driver sent to register his master's car accepted the discarded No. 13 but came back next day with the message that his master's daughter would be better satisfied with another number! "Thirteen" after this was not tried again with cars and it is now cancelled so far as the county of Salop is concerned. The Motor Car Journal, 9.1.04
War Department vehicles handed over to Slough Trading Company - cancellation of registration numbers. All War Department vehicles disposed of through the Slough Trading Company should be regarded as not having been previously registered, (even if by accident numbers remain on the vehicles)... In cases where the registration marks and numbers have not been removed from vehicles prior to their arrival at the Slough Trading Company's deport, the Company will take steps to delete the registration marks and numbers... Circular RF 155 4.8.22
The attention of the Ministry has been drawn to the fact that some Registration Authorities require that a person allotted an identification number of less than four figures shall, on the identification plates, prefix noughts so as to make four figures. In view of the Minister's proposals in connection with general identification marks, (details of which will be communicated later), it is requested that this practice may be discontinued in future cases. It is also understood that some Registration Authorities duplicate the identification numbers, e.g. the same number may be allotted both to a motor car and to a motor cycle. Under the new scheme such duplication may entail confusion and I am to ask that it may be discontinued in all future cases." Circular RF 105 29.11.20
