New number plates for vehicles
The initiative by BRTA to standardize the vehicle number plates is appreciable; however the font size is questionable. As I understand, the plate numbers should be clearly visible and readable at least from a distance of 25-30 meters by a person having 6/6 eyesight. The new number plates fail to do so. The authorities may think of writing "DKM-xx-xxxx" instead of 'DHAKA METRO-xx-xxxx'. This will leave more space for the font size to be increased which will make the numbers readable from quite a distance.
