I don’t think I’ve ever seen an upside down plate before.

Highway patrol hates this one simple trick

I never question Toyota drivers, they’re usually clueless (not the ones on here lol)

Probably trying to trick cameras.

Certainly begging to be pulled over by the police.

How is right... how are you traveling 15km/h while stopped at red light

Oh, I was still moving.  I stuck him moments later.

I like that idea. Looking up some state statutes, nothing says I have to put the license plate right side up.

Looking at the driver, I think it was more dementia rather than any nefarious reasons

So I mentioned this in another post on the topic, but I’ve had people tell me that it tricks enforcement cameras (tolls/red lights/etc.). I can’t really believe that is true, but it’s an explanation.

I had a weird one a few weeks ago though. A Wrangler (with a cute Boston Terrierish dog in it) with what appeared to be a misstamped front plate. It had the numbers right side up, but all the Massachusetts /Spirit of America/e xpiration month stuff was upside-down.

I’d be curious if this has any effect on automated plate readers, since leaving the second largest city in New Mexico in any direction involves driving through a Border Patrol checkpoint with automated plate readers and facial recognition cameras in use that feed into that DHS database that got hacked the other week.

I deal with the border patrol a lot. I will flip my plate on Saturday and see if they mention it.

Speaking of license plates and Camrys, I saw one of that vintage with the vanity plate “WEHVFUN”. All I could think of is No, no you don’t...

It’s a Toyota, that answers all your questions.

Ha, I couldn’t do y’all dirty like that. I’m sure Oppo Toyota drivers know to turn their headlights on when it’s raining or dusk.
