The Best Play on Words
It seems to us like Star Wars related license plates are very popular in the states. Though this may be one of many Star Wars plates, it may as well be one of the most clever and is an ode to one of the most beloved characters, R2-D2.
R2-D2 is a droid robot, and in the original films, it was played by actor Kenny Baker, who sat inside the droid, controlling its movements. Which, ironically, is what we do with cars!
Life Is Like a Box of Chocolates...
...You never know what you're going to get. But with this plate, you know you're going to get smiles. This plate is a sweet and clever tribute to Forrest Gump. It references the hospital scene that occurs after Lieutenant Dan has his legs amputated, and Forrest brings him an ice cream cone to comfort him.
This license plate gets bonus points because they utilized both the frame and the plate to come up with a witty, quick read.
Toe the Line With the Law
If you're looking to draw attention to the way you drive, this type of vanity plate is definitely the way to go! The fine for getting a DUI in the state of Virginia ranges from $250 to $2,500.
This driver is using Virginia Tech's logo on his vanity plate to show everyone that you can love a good drink but still be an excellent (and sober) driver!
Did Someone Say Bacon?
You know how we said that Virginia was the state with the most vanity plates? Well, Ontario is the Virginia of Canada - they've got a ton of them as well! It's safe to say that this driver is definitely into bacon, don't you think?
Interestingly enough, Canadian bacon isn't like American bacon, so one must wonder, what bacon is this guy talking about? Is Canadian bacon that much better than our good ol' American kind? We're booking the next flight to Canada to find out!
Getting a Little Serious
We're going to use this next license plate to lay down some facts for you all. One in every three traffic deaths in the United States involves a drunk driver. In 2013 the state of California issued over 155,000 arrests made for drunk driving.
In California, a first, second, or third DUI is usually considered a misdemeanor. Drunk driving is no joke; always assign a designated driver, and if there isn't one, find an alternate way of getting home!
