Hillman Minx has broken down on double-yellow lines. And overtaken by a DAF or an A40?

It was 1974 (along with local government reorganisation) when Barnsley (HE), Doncaster (DT) and Rotherham (ET) were added to Sheffield ((W), WA, WB, WE and WJ) as part of the new South Yorkshire registration system as well as former Bradford marks AK, KU, KW, KY, former East York's WF and former Stirling WG

Usually in England codes were kept in the same general area, but many of the underused Welsh & Scottish ones were reallocated to places in England.
