The other day I snapped a pic of a Fisker Ocean TLC cab with four in a row 6's on the plate (Belt Parkway in Queens, NYC.) Talk about a unique combo.

Can you be more precise? Maybe give me a regex for the pattern? Almost every single license plate I see has 3 or more digits or letters.

I’m not a plate collector really but in the most passive sense perhaps.
However, I have gotten a few from any country I’ve spent significant time in. (India, Peru, USA…) I now want a Canadian plate. I did almost buy one when I was there last but the flea market I was at they felt very expensive. ($40-$60 US)
I put them up on my one barn door.
I’m not as extreme, but I “collect” license plates by taking pictures. Whenever I see 3+ numbers or letters, and I’m walking, I take a picture
Obviously there’s custom license plates that are cheating (I found a Porsche with just the number 1), but fun to see anyway.
It makes walking more fun because you’re spotting stuff all the time!
