Offensive License Plates Dominate the Streets

offensive license plate

While most of us are content with taking whatever plate number the DMV assigns us, there are a select number who like to make their own vanity plates. An even fewer number are willing to stretch the limits of what is and isnt allowed by their local DMV; such was the case of a man in Nevada who recently got his license plate of “HOE” approved.

From Foxnews.com

A Las Vegas man won a courtroom battle Wednesday with the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles over his “HOE” license plate, which the agency refused to renew on grounds that he was using a slang reference to prostitutes.

The best part about the case was this bit however:

“While the Urban Dictionary might be an entertaining Web site about the English language, the court acknowledged it’s not a reliable source for DMV decision-making about whether a license plate is vulgar,” Gasca said.

It’s a good thing our government is not using Urban Dictionary as an official dictionary. Even though congress has its own YouTube, and Obama loves Twitter, the slang in Urban Dictionary has no place in our nations courtrooms.

It’s even better that free speech is still alive and well in this country. This guy said he liked Lake Tahoe, so let him put HOE on the plate. I see nothing wrong with this.

Also today, from Barstool Sports, a picture of a New York plate “RU18YET” – This is awesome.
