Just like here at home, the Swedes have the option of ordering a so-called wish number plate. But it doesn't matter what is written on it.
Danish number plates must not appear upright.
When Danes search for the so-called onsen license plates, it is not actually their onsen that the Motorstyrelsen takes the greatest account of.
On the other hand, greater consideration is given to society. However, there are not terribly many license plate applications that the Danish Motor Authority has rejected.
Since 2013, there have only been around 18 rejections. It is number plates such as 'SUTMAI', 'MILF' and 'DADASS' that the Motor Authority has discarded.

This is what Claus Holm, deputy director of the Motor Authority, tells FDM. But the Swedes, on the other hand, are much busier. And they are apparently somewhat more persistent than their Danish colleagues. Last year alone, 193 Swedes were rejected by the Transport Agency.
A wish number plate with the text 'slow' has been rejected. Some Swedish drivers have tried to be refused several times for what in Sweden is called 'a personal number plate'. Among others there is Lasse Nielsen.
– It's not damn easy, rather completely insane, says Lasse Nielsen in an interview for Norra Skåne .
Lasse Nielsen has been refused four times, because the Swedish authorities approved the fifth attempt. Among the number plates rejected are 'I0IOI0I', which was judged too difficult to read, and 'WHYWAIT'.
Just like here at home, allusions to dictatorships, weapons and drugs are prohibited on number plates. There, for example, you can't find the letter combinations HH or SS in the regular number plate series either.
