The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) is set to introduce a new temporary vehicle plate message system that will allow motorists to legally display celebratory messages such as "Just Married" and "Called to the Bar" on their vehicles. "You know, sometimes people write these things on their number plates, 'Just Married', 'Rest in Peace', 'Gone Forever' and those other things. Rather than banning the practice altogether, the DVLA will provide an official temporary alternative that motorists can apply for and use for a limited period. The DVLA boss said the temporary plates can be used to mark important personal milestones and celebrations. "So when someone graduates, passes out and gets called to the Bar, we can have 'Called to the Bar' or 'Fresh Lawyer' on the vehicle," he said.
