Owned Her License Plate for 15 Years,
For fifteen years, Wendy Auger never imagined her light-hearted license plate would cause trouble.
To her, “PB4WEGO” was just a playful reminder that made people laugh.
When New Hampshire suddenly declared it “offensive,”
she felt blindsided, as if a private joke had been turned into a public fight.
The plate had become part of her family’s routine. Kids laughed,
parents grinned, and strangers said it brightened their day.
Losing it felt personal. So when the DMV insisted the message “crossed a line,”
Wendy felt misunderstood, believing the state had mistaken her humor for something inappropriate.
What frustrated her most was how officials hid behind strict rules with no room for common sense.
If something so harmless could be banned, she wondered what might be next.
In the end, her quiet pushback became a reminder that “even small freedoms matter” and that defending personal expression is sometimes necessary.
