I actually got rid of my plate. Decided the car sort of spoke for itself and had enough attention as it was.

Guess what they will copy down and call the Highway patrol with? Your easy to remember vanity plate. I knew a guy who had like FAST911(something to that effect). He passed an old couple doing 30 on a 65 mph single lane highway in California on double yellow lines. California has painted over many old passing lanes to double yellow under the guise of safety. Even where its easy to safely pass. They copied his plates wrote the CHP, and he got a nasty letter basically saying if it happens again he will end up in court or something like that, either way he was now on the CHPs Radar. Of course the old folks left out the part that caused the incident. So after that I got regular old plates. This stuff happens all the time.
I worry about this as well... easy to remember plates make it convenient for people to remember your license plate.


Oh well. Here's mine (not for too much longer, I ordered new plates a couple weeks ago):

Default Just ordered

Just ordered the following and will paint the mounting screws black except for the bottom right where I will find one with a larger diameter head and paint it yellow to match the lettering. So it should say NINE91.2

I never did quite get why you would draw attention from the car to a piece of metal with numbers and letters.

I found stainless steel screws with the correct thread type and the heads already painted black at an Ace Hardware store.
