If the headline is more correct ("Because Police Cameras Cannot Tell the Difference Between a Zero and the Letter O") than the article content (which contradicts that claim), then I am alarmed. Otherwise, I am less alarmed.
The bureaucratic suggestion was to submit a form with wrong values on purpose, so it would be flagged for manual workaround. Could not believe they would ask for someone to lie on a form.
Don't forget to ask the officer(s) making the stop for their badge number and name letting them know that you may need to subpoena them.
I'd guess then that it must be vanity plates in these incidents. The state should fix that by not allowing a vanity plate to be issued that only differs from another vanity plate by 0/O changes. (Maybe also filter out 1/I changes).
