I don't often stop by Slashdot much anymore, now I remember why. Is this
for real or a joke? The article indicates that other States are
contemplating this abomination. Is it possible for Vermont to ban cars
with such plates?

techmuse writes "The San Jose Mercury News reports that the California
state legislature wants to put electronic advertising on license plates.
The plate would display standard plate information when the car is
moving, but would also display ads when the car is stopped for more than
4 seconds (say, at a red light). Not distracting or annoying at all!
'The bill has received no formal opposition. It passed unanimously
through the Senate last month and is scheduled to be heard Monday by the
Assembly Transportation Committee.'"
