    Kawaii culture is revolting. Something is seriously wrong with a society that thinks cutesy is cool.

    What kind of pervert does it take to do this? I feel bad for the pilots that are required to pilot this abomination.

    Supposedly, Virtual Earth/Bing maps is not supposed to be able to zoom in too closely for the same reason. Their birds-eye view is amazing, where available, because it's so clear and you can see from 4 angles. I use it to view construction locations (existing buildings).

    I don't understand the uproar if your plate is seen by hundreds of people daily. I back my truck in, anyway, but I don't do it to hide the plate.

    @Timtoolman, now with power tools!: Do you live in a state where front plates are not required? Because otherwise, you're just asking to get a ticket, and I know a lot of areas have had the cops cracking down on that.

    @Leeeeena a Jalopchick: Are you in a state that tickets you for backing into parking spots? My state has front plates too, so backing in wouldn't matter, but I've never heard of getting ticketed for backing into a parking spot before.

    @typhoon5000: No, of course no state will ticket you for backing into a parking spot. I meant that your lack of a license plate would be much more conspicuous if the nose of your car is facing the road, as Timtoolman correctly interpreted.

    That background music is awesome, since it is going to be stuck in my head for the rest of the day anyway, I'm gonna keep playing the video.

    Cue music.

    Why is it a problem to have a published photo of a license plate? I mean, they're in clear view, when you're... oh, say... driving. What information can you even get from it? I've never really understood the problem.

    Dear Jalopnik
    May I make a suggestion of moving the "Beware: the background music will stick in your head for the rest of the day" comment before the video? The music will not leave my head now. Thank you

    "cause you can't see licence plates in public, like you when you drive somewhere or walk down the street.
