Ok so this is gonna sound stupid because it is.
My buddy and I saw that story about the woman in Michigan who got randomly assigned “DCK 247” and we thought it was hilarious.
I was buying a new truck anyway and he goes “I bet Iowa DMV would approve PNS 247.”
I told him no chance in hell because obviously somebody has to look at custom plate requests and there’s no way they would approve that.
So we made a bet. He paid for the plate application. If it got rejected he owed me $200. If it got approved I owed him $200 and had to actually put it on the truck.
I figured this was basically free money.
Well the plate showed up today.
PNS 247.
They actually approved it.
I havent told him yet but I’m obviously paying him the $200 because I lost. The problem is I really dont want to drive around with that plate on my truck.
Can I just go to the DMV and surrender it and say I changed my mind?
Or could I get in trouble because I knowingly requested something that was obviously meant as a dick joke and they somehow approved it?
I’m mostly worried I’m gonna walk in there, explain what happened, and then suddenly they decide I did something illegal or fraudulent or whatever.
I know this is probably a stupid question. Thats why I’m asking it here. But am I gonna get in trouble?
