A license plate from Nevada caused a huge buzz on Facebook with the phrase “Return to California,” receiving more than 80 thousand likes. Nevertheless, the Nevada DMV has now withdrawn the plate.
Plates such as SAUC3D and RAMP4GE are turned down due to offensive content, while F4K3 T4XI and BUYAGRAM imply illegal activities. Men tend to prefer personalized plates, but not all applications are approved by the review group that checks for appropriateness.
This incident going viral shows how social media can turn ordinary events into global sensations. Starting with a clever license plate disguise, it has caught the interest of many, highlighting creativity and humor in surprising ways.
In a time where the online world merges with reality, these events show how unpredictable online culture can be. Whether intentional or not, the person responsible for the famous username has left a lasting mark on the internet.
