I found out today when trying to register my license plate for a toll pass in Washington that another black Model S with the same plate is already registered and being actively driven on the toll bridge. Whoever it is apparently forgot to renew their registration, so when I requested the personalized plate, I essentially took it from them. The issue is they still have not renewed their registration (at which point the plate has to be turned in), so they are still using it. Same car, same color, same city, same license plate.


Let me summarize....SOMEONE WITH THE SAME CAR HAS MY SAME EXACT LICENSE PLATE. The problems this could cause are nearly endless.


On one hand, if that person does something dumb with their car (like a parking violation or hit and run where someone sees the plate), then it comes back on me. That would be a nightmare to explain.

On the other hand, this means that other person gets charged whenever I drive across the toll bridge.
