A simple trip to a Perth shopping center turned into an internet sensation when a cleverly designed license plate caught everyone’s attention. At first glance, the plate on the Kia Sportage read “370HSSV”—nothing out of the ordinary. But when flipped upside down, it revealed a cheeky hidden message that left social media users in stitches.
The photo, shared by a user named Jeffrey on Facebook, quickly went viral. People couldn’t help but admire the driver’s creativity in slipping this past Western Australia’s strict license plate review process. Last year alone, nearly 1,000 personalized plates were rejected for containing inappropriate or offensive content. Some, like “BUYAGRAM” and “F4K3 T4XI,” were clearly pushing boundaries, while others, like “SAUC3D” and “RAMP4GE,” were deemed too suggestive.
What makes this story even funnier is that the plate somehow made it through the approval process unnoticed. It’s a reminder of how a little creativity can turn something as mundane as a license plate into a viral moment. Whether intentional or not, the driver behind this sneaky plate has earned a spot in internet history—proving that humor can be found in the most unexpected places.
