License Plates that were rejected by the Department of Motor Vehicle in 2022

From Jan. 1 to Oct. 31 of last year the DMV rejected a whopping 5,195 plates


Each year, the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles rejects thousands of vanity plates requested by drivers that it deems too offensive to appear stamped onto state-issued aluminum.


That means anything state officials decide is vulgar, indecent or potentially offensive to groups based on race, gender, ethnicity or sexual orientation, not to mention good old-fashioned insults or references to illegal activities.


That certainly hasn't stopped Texans from trying to use their rides as an — ahem — vehicle for foul-mouthed free expression, though. From Jan. 1 to Oct. 31 of last year — the most recent data readily available — the DMV rejected a whopping 5,195 plates.
