Woman: My Assigned License Plate Is Suggestive
Letter, Number Combination Receives Looks From Drivers
Updated: 2:57 p.m. EDT June 28, 2002

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Thousands of motorists drive around Ohio with messages with vanity plates, but a random plate for a woman turned into a big surprise.

When Liz Hill of Westerville, Ohio, bought a car after graduating from college, she did not think too much of her new license plate (pictured, left) until she took a second look, a Columbus television station reported.

The combination of letters and numbers sends a message that she does not want.

"I laughed at first," Hill said. "I was like, 'So my license plate says this. It's wonderful.' I told my sister, my mom and my dad and they laughed too. But on my way to Dublin (Ohio), on (Interstate) 270 I had some honks and a couple people pulled next to me and kind of snickered."

Hill was told that her license plate was an oversight and that she would receive a new plate without a charge or a suggestive message.

So she gets a new plate or a suggestive message? :) Sounds like she's already got plenty of the latter!

No numbers? Was it a personalized plate.

Damn straight! I guess they're still sore over that.
They put "Birthplace of Aviation Pioneers" on their state quarter, too.

They just can't get over it, can they?

The Wright Brothers were Ohioans, but the first successful flight was at Kitty Hawk, NORTH CAROLINA, hence "First in Flight" on NC license plates.

When the NC quarter came out (BEFORE the Ohio one, I might add), I told my wife I was going to send one to the Ohio Governor and their Senators.
I never did, though.

I mean, Wernher von Braun made a hell of a contribution to NASA, but you can't say the first space flight happened in Germany!
