California DMV reports a driver cleverly evaded plate restrictions, obtaining one that spells a prohibited word in a mirror. While personalized plates allow up to 7 characters, rules bar offensive language, mimicry, or replicating existing plates. The state offers various plates like special interest, military, and historical. Special interest plates fund diverse projects from agriculture to child health. Military options include Congressional Medal of Honor, Gold Star Family, and Purple Heart. Historical plates are for vehicles over 24 years old. California’s first license plate, mandated in 1901, required owner initials three inches high; George F. Chamberlain got the inaugural plate. The incident underscores the challenge of monitoring personalized plates while showcasing the system’s quirks.
