New York Joins Montana in Returning to Good, Wholesome License Plate Design

New York apparently doesn’t like it when you call another state “the greatest in the Union” as we recently had about Montana after they’d decided to return to simple, clutter-less license plates, much to our great joy. But now, just two weeks later, New York has hoped on board this return to civilized, decent automobile identification with the release of their new plate design, set to hit the roads next year. And although the state would certainly never have been considered the worst in the nation, we love that they’ve decided to even abandon their one offense, that little strip up top with all that skyline and Niagara Falls business. Instead, it’s solid gold, solid navy, and a teeny tiny outline right there in the middle. What else do you need? And thus, we say that there are now two states who have redeemed themselves. Your move now, other 48.
