God allusions are in your face everywhere in America. This clashes with Europe where the main idea is to keep your faith to yourself and respect other people’s choice.
No official plate is required on the front.
The whole Mercury was a bit of a wreck…
Same case here.
“MAMMIE”, “ELVIS”…everything is officially allowed apparently…
More of my US car plates series. More of mottos, state nicknames, landscape backgrounds, colors and details.
A brave French family visiting America, and worse, Texas!!! I wonder how many times they had unpleasant encounters with the usual idiots, you know the kind to rename French fries into freedom fries, to insult or ban anything French. All of that because the French government didn’t support the American brass and told them not to go to Iraq and risk hugs losses for little gains. Again... Same stuff for Vietnam remember… they didn’t listen there neither.
Oh, and I’m not French by the way. So if someone sends me flak, spare me the usual crap on that.
not a firefighter truck but a private firefighter’s car.
I’m a bit surprised by the Alaskan plates. I saw only 2 and both only mentioned the state birthday…out of a such a magnificent state, sure there was more to find to show off on a car plate… Funny how the yellow stars on a blue background seem very similar to the European flag.
I had once a Missouri plate, when I bought a car in '97 to tour America for 6 weeks but there was a lot more colors on it.
This plate is one of the simplest I’ve spotted but still more interesting than the dull Belgian type.
as said before, America must be the only country where car plates are so funky and open to every driver’s imagination.
The front plate doesn’t have to be official, so welcome imagination.
My reflection. Mom I’m wearing a hat! I felt sorry for the Idaho citizens: only potatoes to brag about?
Political, religious and very personal statements are now in full swing. I read in the news the pro life groups were pestering for having the right to write their beliefs too.
Armed forces are always proud of their status.
poor kids who have to learn that spelling…
Funky car but basic plate.
“Land of Enchantment”…well deserved nickname but it could have been applied to most of the neighboring states…
same state and 3 different types of decoration. Bet there was more.
this plate was attached to a truck which condition didn’t look any better than the plate one.
I suppose this was a pro-life statement.
tasty frame that piece of barbwire…
50 US states but many choices per state can make plate chasing interesting.
As said before, the front plates don’t have to be official so that empty space on the bumper is free for anything…
The Ford Mustang I had been lucky to drive a bit while studying in Florida…
A plate on a Mini Cooper. Sweet Home Alabama…remember Lynyrd Skynyrd?
well funny that is for non Americans of course. Anywhere else in my knowledge car plates tend to be dull and barely allow some playing with letters and digits but still within an imposed set of rules. Anyway here are some US plates.
The state nickname is most common, usually with a landscape background, though style can vary! I bet that this clown would love am elephant skull on his bonnet, if he were living in Africa...
Guess what, this Cadillac 56 owner was an Elvis impersonator.
Karine and I had rented this Ford in Las Vegas, a long way from home, Washington…
Yep, the Wright brothers are from Ohio. I’ve got no idea what else Ohio has to offer, maybe I should check on Wiki.
Armed forces mottos are quite common too.
car owners in the States have a wide range of freedom to express themselves via their car plates. In Belgium, we can barely choose at high price the letters and digits order. Nothing about color or additions.
historic vehicle plate and the state nickname which is very common. Here Arizona aka Grand canyon state.
positions in armed forces are quite common too. My flight instructor last year, a Korean war navy pilot veteran had is plate labelled NAV8TOR.
backgrounds can be quite colorful, showing full landscapes, sometimes sunsets.
historic characters…
and as if plates didn’t allow enough freedom of expression, a dedicated frame can be added.
not sure what Taylor refer to: the driver’s job or a famous character….
