State of Texas cancels Lamborghini owner’s license plate because of what it looks like upside down

A man in Texas was left scratching his head after he was informed that his Lamborghini’s license plate had been canceled.

It took him a while to realize what the problem was with the innocuous collection of letters and numbers.

He was told he needed to pick a different license plate or risk driving without the legal tags.

He worked out what the DMV’s problem with the license plate was, he only had to look at it from a different perspective.

Don’t be a license plate ‘370H55V’

Texas-based Lamborghini driver Safer Hassan was left completely bewildered after he received a letter from the DMV telling him that his license plate had been canceled.

The letter told him he had 30 days to think of a new one or risk driving without the legal tags.

He’d been driving his cherry red Lamborghini with the same plate for three years, so couldn’t work out why the DMV had made this decision.

The plate read ‘370H55V’, a seemingly innocuous collection of letters and numbers on the back of his car – unlike some of the personalized options.

It’s like the world had been turned upside down

Hassan eventually realized that if you looked at the plate upside down it seemingly spelled out a relatively…unsavory word.

Turns out that when the plate is the wrong way up it calls the reader a very rude word, one that rhymes with ‘class pole’.

Hassan still stands by the fact that it took so long to work out what the problem was, that it probably wouldn’t be the first thing people think of when they see it but he still has to change it.

A lot of people try to avoid paying driving charges, but in Safer Hassam’s case, it was purely accidental.
