The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) rejected over 150 personalized license plate requests in 2023, with many deemed too explicit for public display. The annual list of rejected applications has become a holiday tradition, showcasing the creativity (and sometimes questionable taste) of Floridians seeking unique identifiers for their vehicles. This year's batch includes variations on viral phrases, insults, and numerous attempts to get around the state's restrictions on offensive language.
Imagine pulling up behind someone at a red light and reading their license plate: "0NLYFN," "02SEXXY", and "H4WK2AH." For some, they're punny. For others, it's a roadtrip pastime. More than 150 custom license plates Floridians tried to get printed were rejected by the powers at be at the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles in 2024 – and shared with FOX 35 Orlando. Here are the 2023 rejections.
It happened with a handful of license plates this year.Personalized license plate orders are reviewed for obscene or objectionable material by staff in tax collectors or FLHSMV offices when initial applications are processed and also screened through the department's Inventory Control Unit. The cost for a personalized license plate is a $15 additional fee.
