Low numbers dominate New Jersey and Washington plates
Commissioner Dill reports 16 000 residents in three months sought low automobile numbers, with 5 000 letters answered and 6 000 requests received. Only a few select numbers exist under 100, held by Cornish Nutze Smith and Rittenhouse. Most applicants want numbers under 100 for luck, birthday, or hobbies, but Dill stresses low numbers aid identification and enforce legality, not loopholes.
