State Pulls Series of License Plates

LITTLE ROCK- (KTHV-TV)  A customer complained about a letter c****ination on a plate issued to her suggested the "N" word.



Tuesday, Alice Kunce was issued a new license plate. She found the letter c****ination of NGR on the license plate issued to her offensive and would not put it one her car. "

And I just couldn't figure putting this on my car," says Kunce.

Kunce recalls, "And she looked at me and said why not. And I said, 'Ma'am, look at it. What does it say?' And she said, ,'Oh!,"

Office of Motor Vehicles Administrator Roger Duren says, "While some folks might think it's OK, other find it offensive. So if anyone does though, we try to get anything that's offensive, we try not to issue."

Late Tuesday, the state decided to pull the entire series of plates the state uses a computer program and then an employee to screen ideas for personal plates. Another employee and the plate vendor screens the state issued plates for offensive or derogatory c****inations.

Most plates are a nonsense c****ination of letters and numerals. Arkansas is not the only state to use the arrangement of three numbers and three letters on vehicle license plates.

Two black customers at the North Little Rock agency that issued the tags are not offended.

"No, I mean, why? I mean it's nothing," one says.

The other man said, "They are just letters on a license tag, you know. If you get your tags they probably didn't mean nothing by it. She's just taking it the wrong way, you know."

The Office of Motor Vehicles says not only must they consider those who might be issued the plate to use on their car, but also those who might see that plate on other cars on the highway and become offended.
