At a distance they would not be able to ditigiush between 8's and B's. Why do you want it?

i guess because the 8 and B can be misconstrued by a Police officer giving you a ticket for breaking the sound barrier?

I knew someone who had that combo of 1 and I and it got taken away from him when he went to reregister his car. He had that plate for years before that.

I know people have different preferences but dont you think you would get bored with that plate after a while?

Maybe its good you didnt get it.

Before i got my custom plate, i thought really hard which one i wanted. I was given 3 choices to choose from in order from most prefered as number 1. So in case number 1 choice is already taken, you automatically get number 2 choice.

My 3 choices were;

1: 1QWIK7
2: 2QWIK4U
3: U LOST

Luckily for me, my initial prefered choice wasnt taken in my state so that was given to me. Even to this day, i think the plate really is very unique and isnt too like wow or dumb. Its medicore.

Idk, thats my input on the subject lol.

The good thing about having a plate like I11III11 or 8BBB8B8 or similar nonsense is that it makes it a little harder for the average guy to report you to the cops and it might make a cop make a mistake on your ticket (whatever good that is - judges never seem to care)...

The bad thing is that people will remember you for a LONG time... for example, if you cut some guy off, he's going to remember that "stupid 1111111 plate guy" for a lot longer than someone with an ordinary plate.

Just go with the typical "BGPENIS", "BAWLSACK", or whatever along those lines.

I guess all that **** you hear about cops in Virginia is true if the government lets you get those plates to run from them.

If you were to run from the cops, and all they had was "some combination of 'B' and '8' to go by, how long do you think it would take for a computer to spit out a list of everyone who had a plate like that registered to a Mazda? The last thing I'd do with a plate like that is run from a cop and assume he wouldn't be waiting for me when I got home.

I was actually planning on 0 ROTOR if I do a third one since it matches the company name
