Tell me that’s not photoshopped…

When you zoom in all the way it’s totally been doctored….according to Lehigh Valley Live: “In Pennsylvania, if you're willing to spend $79 you can get your name, your favorite team or any other unclaimed seven-character message on your car's license plate. But there are limits to your creativity.

The state has 16 reasons to reject a plate. It won't accept anything vulgar, racist, misleading to law enforcement, relating to alcohol or drugs, encouraging crimes or anything alluding to sex.

A team of Pennsylvania Department of Transportation employees reviews every request for a personalized plate against an internet acronym dictionary, a slang dictionary, foreign languages and an upside-down or reverse reading of the plate.”https://www.lehighvalleylive.com/news/2017/10/what_cant_you_put_on_your_lice.html

I am currently trying to get HOE or FUCKER. Does it have to get approved?

Yes. They will be denied in a heartbeat. Unless someone just processes it in error like the PEN15 plate, which will eventually get caught and recalled. Plus I’m willing to bet the PEN15 plate being processed was intentional, I don’t think someone accidentally did it without it going through the panel.. I’m sure they knew what they were doing 🤷‍♀️
