There are similar stories from many years back about someone that got the 
vanity plate “MISSING”.

[sqlite] A license plate of NULL

2019-08-12 Thread Simon Slavin
Some interesting things are emerging from this year's DEF CON.  This one is 
related to an issue we've often discussed here.  I hope you'll indulge this 
slightly off-charter post.



"  Droogie decided to buy a vanity California license plate that simply said 
"NULL," [...]

Apparently, when they didn't have the right data for a vehicle, a privately 
operated citation processing center used the word NULL in the license plate 
field for many tickets. Since that just happens to be Droogie's license plate, 
he got all of them. "

Most people reading this will notice the error in simplification.  But it still 
indicates that the DMV needs to review its programming.
