For Her Next Trick, She Will Try To Pay For Her U.S. Mint Souvenirs With Monopoly Money
I know it's tough to find parking in these car-choked times, but if you're going to drive around a vehicle with forged license plates, pulling into a spot at the local Department Of Motor Vehicles seems like a very risky way to solve any time crunch that might be imperiled by, say, circling the block a couple more times. And yet a Long Island woman who owns an auto body shop did just that while looking for a place to park yesterday! The story ended thusly: "not long after, a DMV inspector happened to stroll by. He immediately spotted the forged license plates." Perhaps this was all a test of some sort for the inspectors, although the felony criminal possession count would indicate otherwise.








And now she'll have a chance to legally make her next plate?
Just last night I thought of doing this for my car (in my province you don't need to have a plate on the front). First I was thinking of just making a really crudely painted license plate, like you see sometimes on farm trailers or in the Third World, but then I thought, what about a making up a fictional province or state, with some kind of weird symbol and motto, and doing up a proper-looking license plate? It could be pretty funny. I'll give it a shot.
