AA LL EN
Could this be a mis-read foreign registration? With the spacing between the letters, and the fact they’re on a red plate, makes me wonder if it’s not a foreigner .
Maybe some of you ‘euro’ drivers will know?
Thoughts with and deepest sympathies to the family involved.

That was my original thought Kate. It is unusual to have a number plate with no numbers though. I agree it could be misread or misquoted.
Red plates are sometimes fitted to trailers and it could be even a trailer registration plate.
A driver somewhere knows he has done this though 
The only red plates i can think of off the top of my head are fitted to Spanish trailers usually but that doesn’t look like any Spanish registration.
I found this site while trying to be an amateur sleuth!
I dont want to suggest this will hold the answer and the example shown is not meant to divert the investigation.

Hants police appeal for help following the tragic death of a 10 year old boy in a hit and run accident
1 September 2004
Officers from Hampshire police Road Death Investigation Team (RDIT) are urgently appealing for help from lorry drivers across the country after a 10-year-old boy was killed in a fail to stop collision on the Westbound A303 at Cholderton yesterday afternoon (August 31)
Shortly before 2pm a silver V registration Peugeot 306 HDi travelling in lane two of the carriageway was struck by a lorry as it pulled out behind the car.
The collision caused the car to spin across lane one and into a lay-by where it struck a stationary yellow low loader lorry.
The lorry which pulled out behind the car failed to stop at the scene of the collision. It’s believed it then turned off of the A303 at the A338 turning.
The lorry is described as having a white cab with blue sides and back, with some form of red lettering on a plate attached to the rear of the lorry.
The Peugeot contained a 39-year-old man who was driving, and a 10-year-old boy, who was a front seat passenger. Both were from the Milton Keynes area.
The 10-year-old boy, Harry Luke Simcox, sustained serious injuries and was taken to Odstock Hospital in Salisbury where he died of his injuries.
The driver of the vehicle sustained serious head injuries and was also taken to Odstock hospital, where he remains in a critical but stable condition.
Officers from the RDIT are urgently appealing for help in tracing the lorry.
The team is also interested in tracing a similar vehicle that may have had a plate on its rear carrying either the letters AA LL EN, or A(followed by a motif) LL EN.
It’s believed the plate may have had red lettering on a white background. This vehicle may or may not have been the lorry involved in the collision.
Inspector Dave Watkins who’s leading the investigation said:
“It’s vital that we identify all the vehicles involved in this tragic collision. We are particularly interested in identifying the blue and white lorry with the red lettering on a plate attached to its rear.
“Somebody must have either seen the lorry travelling from the Andover area towards the westcountry, or know something about the driver or the vehicle itself.
“We know the lorry turned off the A303 at the A338 turning and we would appeal for anyone who saw the lorry around the time of the incident, or who has any information about it, or its whereabouts to contact us.”
“We also need people to come forward with information about the vehicle with the lettering AA LL EN. This is particularly unusual and distinctive and may have been either the vehicles registration plate or a personalised plate for the lorry or the driver.”
Anyone with information about any of the vehicles or who witnessed the collision is asked to contact Operation Rufford on 0845 045 45 45, or via email on operation.rufford@hampshire.pnn.police.uk
Red lettering on a white background would be like a Belgian plate but that isn’t the configuration of a Belgian number, there would be numbers as well, although the majority of plates in Belgium do have 6 digits. They don’t have one digit then a motif then the rest of the digits as described on the quote from the police website, German trade plates are like that though but that would be very unlikely.
What a terrible tragedy, sorry i cant be of any help as I’m not from down there. I wouldnt want to speculate as to where the driver is from or whether he’s a tipper driver or whatever, all I know is he’s not one of us, any decent person would have stopped no matter how small the incident. As it happens this was no small incident. I hope the police catch this ******* and lock him up for a long time.
Allrighty
just a thought… but from the place this accident happened surely there must be camera’s about that monitor traffic or cctv camera’s which are road facing. Maybe if the were investigated it just happened to pass one on that particular day.
Hmmmmmmmm
this could be one of allen lee from kent blue trucks with red writing fridge artics pull fruit from kent sheerness i believe…worth a try!!

Jack, you may have it there!!!
Their trucks are AL-LE, are they not■■? If so, well done, mate and good to see you back posting
there is another company with same name trying to think of where there from, hang on it will come to me,
,carnt think of place name, but you come off m61 jct 6 do a left ,left again …ind est right at 2cnd set of lights, been there recently just got a mental block of the place, sure some one will recognise where i mean…
having said that is it wise of us to mention names, i dont know,■■? but if it helps…
This accident has been very well publicised and there are posters in many truckstops here and abroad, so I think it has struck a nerve with many drivers!
I loaded in Yeovil and there was a police man asking if they had had any drivers in with a reg no like that.
I suggested an Austrian truck as I had followed a trailer with a similar number
It was showing the Nationality sticker (A) follwed by a red badge or stamp on the plate then the letters LL.
I know we are all guessing but some idea may come from this and will jog someones memory 
The photos that are circulating look like it is a 4 wheel rigid, but it may be an artic or a wagon and drag.
Keep your eyes open
On a quick note. I am not sure if the “AA LL EN” refers to the registration plate or the back of trailer, but:
Aalen is a town in Germany and many companies usually put the name of the place they’re from with the companies name on the truck and trailer (could have been misread initially with one “L” too many?). Plus, the registration code for Aalen is AA followed by one or two letters (for example AA-LL …) followed by one to four digits (AA-LL 57). Again, the possibility of an initial misread still has to be taken into account, I think.
Not heard if any progress was made with this case?
I have seen the above mentioned Wagons twice tipping in our place and when i see them cant help but think of this accident, i wonder if they got checked out?
The lettering on the Two units i saw Was AL-LE.
(i am of course not suggesting any guilt on this companys part, Just willing to see all avenues explored)
When Jack suggested this firm, I rang the Incident Number… it seems this firm has already been checked out!!
Oh god yet another young life lost…my thoughts are with the family at this time and i sincerely hope that the father pulls through…that is a very distinct registration if that is what is being quoted…if its a foreigner then he would have overtaken quite a few trucks on his journey…i for one would have noticed…for there is not much else to look at on the back of a truck once you`ve read the writing !!..anyway its only a coward that fails to stop he deserves the book thrown at him regardless of what nationality he is, and as i,ve often stated if you kill someone then you should be severely punished …i hope and pray that this coward is caught swiftly…
