Personalized license plates are quite common but some are uncommonly creative. This thread is intended to recognize some of those creative efforts that we see on the road without identifying the driver or owner.

To do this, there are a few rules that should be followed:

1. Don't identify the driver or owner.
2. Don't identify the state that the plate is from.
3. Don't identify the make and model of the vehicle UNLESS that information is needed to help make the plate make sense (such as the nomination below).
4. Each person should only make one nomination per day.
5. No political comments (other than any short statements made by the license plates themselves).

Nomination: BEONLY1 (on a Toyota Highlander)

P.S. If there's another thread like this, I apologize. I searched and found nothing similar.

I see that there is a lady in Alabama who screens every vanity plate for hidden messages. She finds stuff that no one else would consider profane. A few years ago some redneck with a pickup got a very obviously profane plate. The state sued to make the guy change it. It was a pretty big deal, but it was Alabama.

One of my favorites is a blue pickup truck that drives around northern Virginia with personalized Washington Redskins plates. His "message?"

CVNCAPT (and a CVN O6) - both at NAS North Island

I used to have NIL8 on my Mustang

Many years ago I saw a Le Car and tag was LEPLATE

I had AZ plate "OIL-MTR" on my VW TDI.

Saw a white van earlier this week with VANNA WHT.

My wife drives a blue Hyundai Sonata with MOON LT.

I saw a red Jeep once. I knew it was a red Jeep because the tag said RED JEEP on it.

It was being towed by an RV that was plated as OUR HOME.

Guess it would be hard to get the two confused.

Kind of have to ID the state. lol I know someone who used to have this.

Got a buddy who's initials as B S and last name is King hence his plate BS KING.

 
Seen years ago when I lived back East. The state required a front plate.

Back in the early 80s saw a sports car with a very attractive woman driving. The plate was AU DIGR.

Twenty something years later I saw the same plate, the sports car was replaced with an SUV, but the lady was still very attractive.
