Mom of four has vanity plate for 15 years – DMV rules inappropriate and demands she surrender it

mother of four was shocked when New Hampshire’s Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) demanded she surrender the vanity plates she had 15 years.

The plates are a gentle reminder to each of her sons to use the potty before jumping into the car.

But, failing to appreciate Wendy Auger’s harmless message, the DMV determined the plates referred to “sexual or excretory acts or functions.”

In 2019, Wendy Auger, of Rochester, New Hampshire, was instructed by New Hampshire’s DMV to turn in the vanity license plate she used for 15 years.

“It would just stink if I don’t have it anymore,” said the mother of four, who frequently receives compliments over her hilarious plates.

Referring to the state’s motto, “live free or die,” Auger then adds, “If I have to take it off the plate, then I’m not going to be able to live free.”

Her plates read “PB4WEGO,” which reminds her children that before they hop into the car to “pee before we go.”

“Who has a mom or dad or parental figure who hasn’t said that to kids before leaving the house?” the paralegal asks. “I’m not the type to sit here with a picket, but come on.”

According to the letter sent by the DMV that demands the surrender of the plates, the combination of letters in her plates refer to “sexual or excretory acts or functions.”

“I’m not a political activist,” she tells CNN. “But this is a non-offensive thing that I’ve had and it’s part of who we are as a family and who I am and there was zero reason for them to take it away.”

At the time, Auger had 10 days to turn in her plate and was given the option to choose another customized plate at no extra cost.

After she received the letter, the woman shared the recall letter on Facebook along with photos of her plates.
