"ILVTOFU" plate request misinterpreted by DMV

A Murfreesboro woman wanted her new Tennessee license plates to make a statement about her vegetarian beliefs.

The state of Tennessee read something else into her request.

According to a press release now circulating from the People for the Ethical Treament of Animals, Whitney Calk’s request for a personalized license plate has been rejected by the Tennessee Department of Revenue, Taxpayer and Vehicle Services on the grounds of “vulgarity.”

The plate she wanted? “ILVTOFU.”
