Saw a Lincoln SUV with **T1TLE**. Presumably a reference to a title / escrow company.

With the size of the FL real estate industry, I’m guessing **TITLE** was taken long ago.

Saw **BAGHERA** on the way home from the store this morning. Maybe they’re a big fan of “The Jungle Book” but only have seven spaces on the plate.

Saw a family-style SUV with the Walt Disney World theme plate which holds 5 letters. It read **KDLDY** which I interpreted as “kid lady” as in a Mom.

Saw tonight: **EX EXPAT**

So, they’re back home?

One I’m surprised passed muster on a Mustang: **NOOOKIE**

Today I was behind a raggedy 15ish yo Toyota something. The FL standard plate read **SCRPOH**.

“Scrap-oh”, “scarp-oh”, etc., didn’t make any sense at all. After a couple minutes the lightbulb came on: “scorpio”. Maybe.

Just saw a good one.

White Bentley Continental GT. Nearly new. Rather expensive looking 40-ish woman driving. The plate read **DORVDOR**.

Take _that_, you jerky ex-husband you!

Saw **IND1A** on the way home today. Couldn’t see the driver, white non-descript sedan.

Okay, not in the wild but I went to the movies today and in one of the trailers (for which movie, I don’t recall), a car had this custom plate:

**RRS HOLE**

Love it! I wonder if that would really fly. Or some other related derivations of it, like:

**RR HOLE**  
**RR WHOLE**  
**RRR HOLE**

and so on…

I think it’d be a lot more likely to pass the DMV censors if the E was absent.

OK, I shamelessly stole this from Facebook this morning. Made me chuckle.

Photo taken in Topeka, Kansas.

Plate says **HI OFCR**

But the trooper can’t see it from where they’re sitting. When the light goes green the VW needs to punch it then jump in front of the trooper in the #1 lane. As a friendly greeting, not as a challenge. 😁

  

This morning I scored 3. None too exciting. All ordinary cars and ordinary FL plates.

**PEPPERX** , **SUMMER3** , and **GIANA⎵G**.

Another day, another idiot driver with a custom plate. Today it was the guy with **RU SVED** who cut me off and then ran a red light. Dude, driving like that you better hope you’re saved because you’re gonna meet your maker sooner rather than later.

Two on the way home today.

**AUDIOFYL** : I liked how they got it down to 8 letters.

On a white Honda Civic (the sort that makes me think of Stormtrooper helmets from behind): **BWARE⎵55**. Now, given how it was being driven, this was not a warning that the driver was going to stick to the speed limit, that was left well behind. Beware if you _are_ driving the limit?

Saw two today

Tesla Model Y dual motor with **QUICKER**. Yeah probably is.

Then a sorta fluorescent lime green Corvette C8.Z51. With loud pipes and a driver who loved to rev the engine at every traffic light as we glided along at 35mph among the rest of the Saturday traffic. Yet another “Look at Meeeee!” Florida douchenozzle. His plate was a bit clever though: **CARAZY**.

Saw **TR3 FIDY** this morning. Just caught a glimpse of it before the light changed, took me a minute to put two and two together.

But that makes **FWR**. I’m confused. 😉

Maybe it’s just the angle, but, oh my god, becky, that car looks like one of those rap guys’ girlfriends.
