A woman from New Hampshire has been asked to surrender her 15-year-old vanity license plate by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) because it features the word “Pee”. Wendy Auger, who lives in the Gonic neighbourhood of Rochester, NH, had chosen the licence plate “PB4WEGO” because it was a playful nod to the parental saying “Pee before we go”.
However, the DMV said that any vanity plates featuring bodily fluids were forbidden. Auger has described the decision as an attack on her free speech, and others have supported her, saying that the state’s motto of “Live Free Or Die” should apply in cases like these.
