144B Electric-powered vehicles (1) An electric-powered vehicle or a vehicle modified to be an electric-powered vehicle must have fixed conspicuously to each number plate a label that is an equilateral triangular shape— (a) each side of which is 30 millimetres in length; and (b) that must be made of metal and at least one millimetre thick; and (c) that is reflective blue; and (d) that is marked "EV" in an upright position on the label in white capital letters at least 8 millimetres high in the orientation shown in the example; and (e) that does not wholly or partly obscure any characters on the number plates. The example of the label is for illustrative purposes only and does not represent the label's actual size, dimensions or colour. (2) This clause does not apply to a hydrogen-powered vehicle even if the vehicle is fitted with an electric motor or traction motor that is used in conjunction with a hydrogen fuel system for the propulsion of the vehicle.
