X-rated number-plates banned
Britain’s Driving and Vehicle Licensing Association (DVLA) have banned a list of controversial number plates before the new 57 registrations arrive.
The association was warned some of the number combinations could be interpreted as rude or offensive words, with the 57 being used to represent the letters S and T or S and Y.
The blocked registrations included: TE57 CLE (Testicle), EC57 ASY (Ecstasy), BA57 ARD (B*****d), MY57 ASH (My Stash), H057 AGE (hostage), HE57 ABS (stabs) and EA57 GAL (Easy Gal).
A DVLA spokesman said the offensive plates were banned "to avoid causing general offence or embarrassment".
However a spokesman for the Association of British Drivers said: "The DVLA should be setting their priorities on more worthwhile issues - like reviewing safety."
