Look closely, and you’ll see it! This License Plate Is Going Viral, You Won’t Believe Why
A Nevada license plate with the message “Go back to California” became a viral sensation on Facebook, racking up over 80,000 likes. However, the Nevada DMV has since recalled the plate. The plate’s provocative message tapped into ongoing tensions between residents of Nevada and California, leading to widespread online discussion.
Interestingly, personalized plates are particularly popular among men, but not all applications make it through the review process. Plates like “SAUC3D” and “RAMP4GE” were rejected for potentially offensive content, while others such as “F4K3 T4XI” and “BUYAGRAM” were flagged for hinting at illicit activities.
This incident demonstrates the power of social media to elevate a simple, localized message into a global talking point. The plate’s humor resonated with many, turning it into a symbol of state pride or frustration, depending on the viewer’s perspective.
