Digital license plates now available as option for Arizona motorists
Arizona drivers now have another option for their license plates, one that the tech savvy will love - electronic digital plates.
The new plate option is called Rplate Digital License Plates. According to the Arizona Department of Transportation, they are LTE wireless connected devices similar to a tablet. The license plate number is constantly displayed, and the technology allows for added messages such as "invalid," "stolen" and other notifications if needed.

I guess the display is an HD display. Whoa boy, it's gonna be fucking awesome when people start hacking these, whether it's an affluent criminal switching plate numbers for a dope deal or some lonely nihilist who wants to configure some hapless sucker's license plate to reading "NIGGERS" . We all know the security for these kinds of things sucks major shit and you wonder how many chunks of gravel they can take before the screen cracks and you're out another $500.
