California driver cited after displaying a homemade license plate
On Oct. 10, the agency’s Merced office shared on Facebook that an officer stopped a Nissan Sentra after noticing “something unusual” about its rear license plate.
Instead of the typical California license plate, the driver had crafted a hand-drawn version complete with “California” lettering, the DMV’s website, and a registration sticker.
CHP said the driver earned “points for creativity” but still received a $197 fine citation for driving without valid plates, according to the Los Angeles Times.
Under California law, vehicles must display proper state-issued plates. Drivers can request replacements through the DMV for $27 if their plates are lost or stolen.
The CHP didn’t respond to KTLA’s request for comment.
