As part of efforts geared towards enhancing national security and promoting ease of vehicle identification, and robust data management, the Federal Road Safety Corps has concluded processes towards the full implementation of 3 number plates for articulated vehicles.

According to a statement by the Corps Public Education Officer, Bisi Kazeem, it is statutory for articulated vehicles to have 3 number plates which are to be visibly placed at the front of the tractor, at the back of the tractor and the third number plate,  placed at the back of the trailer or tanker.

Given the main reasons for the implementation of the 3 number plates for articulated vehicles,  Kazeem stated that it is to boost existing data on articulated vehicles, promote national security, enhance ease of identification and advance the objectives of the National Vehicle Identification Scheme (NVIS).

It is important to note that the 3 number plates are essentially designed for designated vehicles alone. As such, vehicles order than articulated will only have 2 number plates placed at the front and rear of the vehicles for ease of identification.

The Corps Public Education Officer quoted the Corps Marshal, Dr Boboye Oyeyemi, as saying that the Corps is working endlessly to ensure that all articulated vehicles are captured in the NVIS portal to boost the information base and also make identification of such vehicles very easy for intelligence gathering and security of road users
