I want to get one that says "/dev/car." I may have to just get "dev car" and add on the "/"

except it's illegal to tamper with a license plate.

uh. no.

err, yes.

I understand why messing with a plate is illegal. But I've seen slightly modified plates where I live. Granted, not quite so excessive as the /dev/car example.

Illegal in most states to tamper with plates..

Most I have seen are emergency services like FD maltese cross painted red and EMT maltese cross painted blue.

Anything more than that may get you a ticket....

Most police are not concerned with minor alteration as long as the numbers are not altered. putting a / in a plate reading DEV CAR can make the plate look like
IDEVICAR or 1DEV1CAR

so for that, it is very illegal
