I always thought that, if allowed, some combination of O’s and 0’s would be the toughest to decipher.
Sort of like these…

Indiana plate are three letters followed by three numbers. There may be a pattern, but I don’t know it-- that is, there may be plates that if they were issued as vanity plates, would be impossible as regular plates, because they would be numbers too far in the future, or something.
If I wanted to get a specific plate-- a vanity plate, in other words, that would be consistently reported incorrectly by witnesses, I would get something that looked like a common three letter word followed by a commonly known three digit number, but I’d change the middle number to a lookalike.
In other words, PHL 971. People who saw it fleetingly would report it as PAL 911. At least theoretically-- people tend to recognize words when the first and last letter are correct, but the middle letters are out of order, or contain a single error. Assuming it’s possible for common number combos, like 911, or 1776.
Indiana plates are not great for letter/number recognition anyway. I was behind someone with a cryptic vanity plate the other day, and I could not tell is something was a D or a 0. They pretty much look alike, and it’s there position as a letter or a number that makes the difference.
I suggest “LISCENSE”.

Why can’t I get past the “An error occurred: Body seems unclear, is it a complete sentence?” error? If I click in it still won’t let me post it.
Or, LICENSCOUS, meaning, possessing a great number of civil and professional licenses
Ooooh! Spiderman-- thanks!
There’s an idea for a plate that would monkeywrench the place if one got into your kindle-creating materials. I can get more.
Yeah, I hit that error too. I guess there’s some minimum level of real words or length we have to reach. That’s why I added “I suggest” in front of my submission.
Kind of tarnishes threads where snappy comebacks in the form of a single not-quite-word would otherwise fit.
I have seen vanity license plates composed entirely of 1s and Is. Like a sequence randomly mixing them: 11I11II
Yes but if I tell the police it was a Honda Civic and the plate was all 1s and Is, that could really pin it down.
And of course…“There’s always an XKCD”:
