New License Plate STUNS Florida Woman

The DMV Just Handed This Florida Grandma the Most "Inappropriate" Plate in Broward.

We’ve all suffered through the DMV, but Nancy Dello Stritto from Pompano Beach just won the "Worst Tag" lottery.

Florida handed Nancy a brand new plate for her Buick that reads:

SQZ A55.

While Nancy was horrified, her 89-year-old neighbor had a different take. When she showed him the plate, he simply looked at it and replied: "Good."

Wait—Who Made This Thing? If you’re wondering how "SQZ A55" cleared quality control, you have to look at the source. Most Florida license plates are actually manufactured by PRIDE Enterprises (Prison Rehabilitative Industries and Diversified Enterprises).

Specifically, they are cranked out by inmates at the Union Correctional Institution in Raiford, FL. So, while the DMV claims they have a "blacklist" of banned phrases, it’s safe to say the guys on the assembly line in Raiford either had a sense of humor or just stopped caring around plate number 5,000 that day.

The Fix: Broward County is letting Nancy swap the plate for free.

What do you think, Pinellas? Keeping the "SQZ A55" tag or trading it in? Let us know in the comments.
