Apologies if we’re late to this, but the California DMV has apparently had it up to here with your bullshit request for a 69 vanity plate. It says as much on the department’s website.

“The number ‘69′ is reserved only for 1969 year model vehicles that the license plates will be placed upon,” the rule, under a section mandating that “you must acknowledge that you have read the following,” states.

Think that’s vague? Here’s another reference to it:

“Why did my license plate get denied?” Because you wanted 694EVA, that’s why.

We reached out to the DMV to figure out if there was a particular incident that goaded the department to add this, as well as how many requests for “69″ license plates it gets annually. We’ll update if we hear back.
