The black and yellow license plates in California have a lineage dating back to the early 20th century. In 1914, California introduced its first official license plates, which were made of iron and featured black lettering on a yellow background. These plates were a simple yet effective means of identifying vehicles on the road. The combination of black and yellow was not only distinctive but also easy to read, contributing to road safety at the time.
