Posted July 4, 200618 yr This appeared a couple of months back in the Columbus Dispatch. GRAPHIC: Judging the plates (accepted and rejected plates) License plates 2 HOT4U? Censors applying brakes Sunday, May 07, 2006 James Nash THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH Questioning President Bush’s truthfulness is OK, but don’t even think about declaring your hatred for the University of Michigan. References to beer and other alcoholic drinks are acceptable, but allusions to drunkenness are out of bounds. And while no one has tested it, messages referring to Islamic extremism — such as OSAMA or JIHAD — likely wouldn’t pass muster.

July 4, 200618 yr Mike Royko had a column about this back in the 1980's, and I always remembered one of his examples of a license plate they caught and rejected: TIH2 HO ...just think of what that would look like in a rear-view mirror...

July 4, 200618 yr too funny. did anyone ever get away with that and get the plate? if so that would have to go up on a bar wall somewhere for posterity.
July 4, 200618 yr Another thing to consider is the Bengals license plates. They have a big "B" on the left side of the plate. I heard that someone had a personalized Bengals license plate with the word "itch" I heard it was revoked. :laugh:
July 4, 200618 yr ^ LOL. There's got to be a list somewhere going around of rejected plate requests. I bet BMV folks circulate some kind of list. You know they're a fun bunch.
July 5, 200618 yr too funny. did anyone ever get away with that and get the plate? if so that would have to go up on a bar wall somewhere for posterity. If you are talking about IVNIK8, yes, I've seen it used in California before. "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers
