How much you wanna bet the contractor for the new plate system simply can’t figure out how to generate a slashed zero? Ø

Here is what I was told. If you already have a flat tag, then you can put the sticker on it. At this point in time, embossed amateur plates are not being replaced at this time (at least my last name group) and to put the sticker on. My ham plate may not be in as bad of shape as Dennis's, but it's still showing its age. For those of us in the over 50 group, I find it hard to believe the state is having such a challenge with license plates as for years of our driving experiences, one received a new plate yearly. I would think these new flat plates that surely are somehow connected to a computer system and surely running a looping production file that's printing on plastic, would be a much faster and less human interaction process to create thousands of new plates. Off my soapbox and my new stickers are on the old plates.

But now I put the new tags on the old ones. Now I just finished the fascial of renewing my FCC license. I could not get over the details of something so simple. It is not for older people! Best of luck to anyone when your time comes to renew! I think of some of the older people that do not have a computer, credit card, etc. One thing to be aware of "all of the expiration, of time allowances", every thing you do is allowed a certain time frame. "Good Luck" Dennis
