- sb057 5y agoIt's a play on their flag design. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Maryland https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Maryland

- mbreese 5y agoI can still read the Texas plate. Even knowing the default plate number is MD plus the year of joining the US doesn’t help to be able to read the Maryland plate. I’m not even sure why there is the faux-3D look anyway.
- eliaspro 5y agoI believe fancy typography has no place on a license plate. Germany designed the FE-Schrift especially for license plates which is hard to forge/easily (machine-) readable.
