WTF....license plate

http://www.wxii12.com/news/16699280/detail.html

RALEIGH -- Thanks to some text message-savvy grandchildren, North Carolina drivers whose license plates have the potentially offensive "WTF" letter combination can replace the tags for free.

Internet Acronyms Parents Should Know

The News & Observer of Raleigh reported Tuesday the state Division of Motor Vehicles has notified nearly 10,000 holders of license plates with the letter combination.

Officials learned last year the common acronym stands for a vulgar phrase in e-mail and cell phone text messages.

The DMV recently realized the same letters appeared on the sample license plate on its own Web site. Officials are trying to remove the plate from the site.

DMV officials got word of the plates last July when a 60-year-old technology teacher from Fayetteville complained about the plate after her teenage grandchildren clued her in.

DMV officials said they try to keep up with the latest acronyms, and that anyone who has an issue with their plate can contact their local DMV office to request a new one.

LOLOMGWTFBBQ!!! I find this amusing. I wonder if they're going to replace the other offensive letter combinations. Hell, I want a plate with WTF on it myself. Then I can point at it when people piss me off.

another old bat doing what they can to ruin any fun

Americans = conservative. What about WTH? Is that still too vulgar?

its like that family episode or w/e when they say the black people found a way to get back at the white people and they show him working at the dmv

i tried to get the plate "BEATER" for my beat up old '86 toyota pickup truck... but they refuse to issue it to me because, in their words, "it can be construed as offensive".

so i asked them to kindly force everyone to remove any bible references from their plates because i believe religion is the number 1 cause of death in the history of this planet and i find that highly offensive. they didnt take that too kindly.

IB6UB9 << Best license plate combination ever. Too bad they won't allow it.

hahahhahaha

Omg Rofl

ohhh man... that's a good one. don't mind having that one on my car

just make a formal complaint and something will need to be done about it. it just takes 1 lonely person with nothing better to do to ruin something. there was the local story of the lady who has the plate XSTACY for 19 or 20 years and 1 person complained about it.

What about the silver mustang i saw and his lic plate said BTM BOY

Nathan saw a girl in a celica w/ SXY GRL on it

I've seen a few others that I can't remember...

lol so stupid

I want a WTF licence plate. I think I wouldn't mind having a plate with the numbers 666 in it either. it will prevent a few church goers who I don't quite get along with not wanting to ride with me in my car. LOL

My license plate is 666-***...when i went to the DMV to get plates the guy was like, "want anything in particular?" I asked," what's the one you can't ever get rid of?" he said, "666" so i said "I'll take it, I have a crucifix hanging from my mirror"

^cool

WTF is wrong with MILF's? Obviously those who were opposed were not a MILF! I could understand if it said *UCK YOU!
