I sometimes feel lonely when I play ETS2 (With ProMods and RusMap), this is because once I am in a foreign country, only vehicle registration plates of THAT country appear. Obviously there are going to be trucks from different countries.

What about places like the Mediterranean? There would be lots of tourists there from different countries.

There should be a different amount of foreign vehicle plates in different countries.

Belarus - Foreign Traffic Rate
Russia 5%
Ukraine 2.5%

I proposed this question to one of the SCS directors (Martin Cesky) and he said it's very difficult to achieve with the engine currently

Eh you'd have to set the probability for seeing a car in each country, from every single other country. Sounds like a headache even if it was possible though. I don't even pay that close attention to the license plates.

Yeah but for every country the game opens a new memory bank for the license plate buffer (and also the mechanism with fonts, symbols etc) and so mixing 10 different countries will take many different memory buffers in permanent use. Now when you cross a border usually only 2 (or in the worst case 3) countries are mixed.
