This isn't even a SQL problem. This is a "people filling out the forms are stupid" problem. Why would you put a combinations of letters and numbers that could be a valid license plate number into the plate field for a car that has no plates. Draw one giant X or a big line through the box, problem solved.

I would imagine it's also a "lovely software" problem, since on the little digital printers that lots of TCOs use nowadays they probably need to have a certain amount of alphanumeric inputs to specific fields in order to print.

Yeah, it seems easier for the DMV to not issue plates that are potentially confusing, like MISSING and VOID.

We might as well start calling each other Comrade! :byodood:
