The EU-logo on the license plates clearly marks the car as being registered in the EU. Because the letter code of the member country is also included (as described earlier in this thread) there ain't no problems for law enforcement in looking up the number in the appropriate database. So there is no need to change to a common license plate. By the way: Putting the EU-logo on license plates was a brilliant idea. It actually gets many people to think about "those damn other Europeans from xy" instead of "those damn French/Dutch/etc." when on the road... ;-) Although that sounds funny, I regard that as a major step forward in integration.
