URPL8SUX: Licensed To Offend

Letters of complaint about crude, off-color New York State tags

SEPTEMBER 1--With the last big summer weekend here, it's time to pile into the car, hit the road, and scope out the offending license plates on your fellow motorists's ride. As with every other state, crafty New Yorkers are determined to slip decidedly distinctive tags past the personalized plate censors at the Department of Motor Vehicles (which provided the below letters to us following a Freedom of Information request). And, sadly, there seems to be an equal number of Empire State residents ready to snitch to the DMV when they spot such tags. As we've seen in other states, the offending plates often include anatomical references, crude abbreviations, foreign language vulgarities, and messages that only become clear when seen through a rear-view mirror. While impressed by BIGPNS, 3M WOJ8, and EFF EWE 2, our favorite issued plate to cause public consternation is POTVINSUX. As hockey fans know, that's the classic, use-it-anywhere chant developed by New York Rangers fans and directed at the hated Dennis Potvin, a star defenseman with the rival New York Islanders. Oh, and 2HOT2DOU was a nice touch. (17 pages)

FL2PC72LE: "I fell to pieces eventually."

I know, I know. But for some reason it popped into my head about 10 years ago and I never quite got over it. I should have it put on my gravestone. I can just see people standing in the cemetary with their heads cocked to the side, their lips moving as they try to figure it out. LOL!

I've always wondered if I could slip PHA Q by the censors.

A clever way of spelling the Big O...a friend of mine, his boat was called "Ms Agro" for a long time before someone snitched.
