Wisconsin license plates will now start with the letter “B” after exhausting all four and a half million number and letter combinations that previously started with the letter “A”. The Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) announced the new series of plates, which took nearly eight years to issue, will debut soon. Interestingly, the letters “I”, “O”, and “Q” are not used on license plates due to their resemblance to numbers. Officials from the DMV say this change comes as a result of the increasing number of vehicles registered in the state. Residents are encouraged to stay updated on this change and other news by downloading the Northern News Now app or the Northern News Now First Alert weather app. For more information and to stay informed about the latest news in Wisconsin, visit the Northern News Now website.
