That’s much better. The one I saw was on the back so you’d only see it after they’d already passed you when it was too late. Unless, of course, it was a parting shot to encourage you to speed up for the next speedster zipping by.

Back in the '80s while contracting to various California law enforcement agencies, we always ran a 10-28 and a 10-29 for this plate through CLETS.

Some time ago I saw a woman driving a BMW with the plate:

“WAS HIS”

Must have been some divorce, LOL.

On the back of a station wagon like one usually used to transport dogs in the back:

There was another one that I saw over the weekend that I considered listing on Monday:

DIVA-some-big-number

If someone wants to advertise that they're a DIVA (defined as "a self-important person who is temperamental and difficult to please" instead of the singer), fine, but if you're the some-big-numberth person to get that plate, it looks to me like it also shows that you're not very original and not really deserving of the "recognition" of the self-importance. Therefore, no nomination!

They wouldn't let them have "ASSHAT"

I had a girlfriend whose mother would try to figure out the "meaning" of plates that weren't personalized when there was some coincidental series of letters. Stuff like 180PHD she would think meant the person had a PhD. Reminded me of the old man in Forget Paris that would read all of the signs.

Lol, one early morning headed in to work traveling westbound on I-20 between Conyers and Panola Road, I saw DIVA4623. Why do I remember this 1+ year later? That would be because she drove like an idiot, and apparently I offended the princess in some fashion because she filmed me as she passed. The look of exasperation clear even in the 5am hour highway lighting. I am guessing she really didn't like it when I gave the one finger salute. Roll Eyes

I saw one that said "Heisenberg" last week, tried to get a pic but the light changed. I can't recall the exact abbreviation used.

This is my first post on this forum, and I get to play Captain Obvious with the plate on my car. I had a few other, more clever plates in mind, but ultimately gave into this one because: 1) my family liked it; 2) it was available, much to my surprise; and 3) it was actually approved, much to my surprise!

Frank, welcome to the forum and thanks for sharing your photo. Perhaps the state didn't turn it down since it was the name of the most important U.S. navy plane in the latter part of WWII in the Pacific theater. Like "Miracle on 34th Street," once the U.S. government recognizes it as official...

I saw a black sports car with very loud pipes this weekend with the plate

Why anyone would want such loud pipes, I guess only the...ahem, owner?...knows.

Driving home yesterday, I saw this on a SUV.

BURQAA

Did not see the driver.

Why would you get that if not to push buttons?

After my late wife decided to leave our marriage, I had to repossess the Jeep I'd bought her. I changed the plates to WAS HERZ.




You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

This afternoon in a Wawa parking lot I saw a new blue grand sport corvette with a handicap placard and his plate was 50YR W8. He could barely get out of the damn thing, but he was smiling from ear to ear. I gave him a thumbs up as I drove away. Made my day.

Thanks so much for the warm welcome, ST! Yes, it would be nice if that were the reason my plate was approved, but in fact, I indicated on my plate application that it was the model of my car (which helped). Also, when I called the DMV to see if it was approved, I was told that mine was quite mild compared to some of the requests they receive! LOL!!

Looking forward to contributing more to the forum in the future.
