What Maine says about plate text

Up to 7 characters under MV-45A and 29-A M.R.S. 453, which states that 'PC license plates may have up to 7 characters in the following patterns: 6 characters plus one space or dash; 7 characters no space or dash' — hence the cap of one space or dash. The ampersand is not part of that cap: the state's own example AB&C-2 carries both an ampersand and a dash. An ampersand is only allowed in configurations of 2 to 6 characters that begin with a letter, e.g. A&71B or AB&C-2. Slang, abbreviations, phonetic spellings and mirror images of otherwise-prohibited terms are refused.
