ARTCAR Delaware license on Art Car in Southeastern PA

While driving south on Rt 202 from Rt1 into Delaware we saw this Art Car with an ARTCAR Delaware license.


The driver smiled when we took a picture of the side of the car and him at a stop light. I expect he wants the attention.

TUBULAR - the 80's called and they want their license plate back

Or maybe - the song "Valley Girl" called and they want their catch phrase back. (lyrics)

How about - Mike Oldfield called and he wants half of his album title back (Tubular Bells, but you knew that didn't you?).

Elemental license plate - YLOMNM

I think this person is trying to evoke the element aluminum with this Delaware license, YLOMNM. I had a very dark picture that I had to balance to bring back the license to visibility. As long as it is captured in the bits, clever manipulation can bring it out.

HO HORC license in delaware

I was stumped as to what a HO HORC license plate could mean. It sounds like the noise you make before you hork up some phlegm. But then I realized, as I eventually do, that sometimes you read the license as a word and sometimes you say the letters. Thus this license says HO HOR C (cee) - "ho horsey". Which makes much more sense when you consider the horse painting on the spare tire cover. Mystery solved. I would have understood it better if it was on the back of a horse.

KITES license in Delaware

I assume this person likes to fly kites and not that they like to pass bad checks.

What other implications of this license plate am I missing? Please leave your suggestion in the comments.

Amstel beer lover license plate

I have to assume that this person really likes Amstel beer, or maybe the Amstel light that is in all of the commercials, as reflected by their AMSTEL license plate.

It is less likely though possible that they are formally from Amsterdam and decided to get a license plate to commemorate the river Amstel, that runs through that famous city. The beer is named after the river so in a round about way the second speculation is true if the first is.

Don't Blink!

My eyes dried out as I followed this car on the road because I tried to follow the instructions "to the letter". DNTBLNK license plate offers good advice for drivers to pay attention while driving.

Perhaps they might also mean don't blank. Imagine that you are on Jepardy and they have just posed the answer and you must come up with the question, "What is...". This license plate would help you to not blank on the question.

Sage advice no matter the interpretation. All I ever needed to know I learned from license plates.
