Truthfully, it’s not just a plate show, beloved, it’s a commitment to peace. One never knows whom one might drive by. Never. Byte-sized peace inspiration might be all it takes to create a planet fired by peace.

For Shawn Honnick of Maryland, it doesn’t matter if the plates are cryptic or obvious, silly or serious, have a story behind them or are simply someone’s name. He’s posted over 1,800 2400 2600 photos of vanity plates on his web site, many of them snapped on the road with his cell phone camera. He’s planning to soon finally started a podcast about life, vanity plates and the meanings behind them.
“I’m [mildly] obsessive about it,” he said. “People who know me, that’s the first thing they think of.”
Honnick fell in love with personalized plates as a boy, when he and his father deciphered the ones they saw while traveling on the highway. Now Honnick records plates during his own drives, including trips to visit his father in Maine.
Among his favorites: GET ONE, a plate he once saw on a Corvette.
