Ever see license plates that make you laugh, or that amaze you with their cleverness? E.g. the plate “ASS MAN” featured in the show “Seinfeld”.

A couple others I’ve seen and enjoyed:
DIC DOC
B8OVEN (presumably referring to Beethoven)

I’m sure I’ll think of others I’ve seen.

Feel free to report humorous and/ or interesting plates you’ve spotted, for the amusement of our group here.
 
Georgia once issued a plate with the following three letters before the numbers: FAT - I didn't take one. B
 
Years ago in radio where Morse Code was used, there were Q Codes.
Just away to lessen key strokes on a Morse Code key.

These Q Codes carried over to vocal transmissions too. More so in Amateur
Radio. Like, "I'm QRT." (Signed off.)

Today they are called Text Acronyms.

In radio some of the Q Codes were...

QSO... communicate.
QSL... acknowledge your message or agree.
QTH... your location - my location.
QRT... end of transmission - signing off.

But, if someone keyed/said to you something you disagreed with or you
felt was something some what insulting you - you could reply... 4Q2.
(Eff you too - fork you too.). You wouldn't get a double O letter warning
from the FCC for using profane language over the broadcast airwaves. :)

Sure enough I saw a license plate that had... AND - 4Q2

Had to have been an old radio operator. :)

Tillie, I woke up stupid this morning. So unfortunately I’m going to have to ask you to explain that Aussie plate to me. Thanks in advance.

Firefighter, I once saw another dentist’s plate:
2th DR. (Tooth doctor)

One of my former rheumatologist colleagues had the following:
JOINTS (But the state of Oregon later took that one away from him due to other implications).

Another former colleague had: RHEUMD

A friend of mine has GR8FUL

If you can read this, thank a teacher.

If you can read this, you’re too close.

Shut up and drive.

My other car is a broom.

This is my other car.

It will be a great day when the schools have all the money they need, and the military has to have a bake sale to raise money for weapons.

If you don’t like socialism, stay off the public roads.
