    Honestly, I really think these names are simply lame to be on your car. Commemorative plates should reflect the owner or at least identify with the owner.

    Who would want to have a car having a plate with a name of a lodge or government agency? What are these guys thinking?? I initially thought it was a good idea because they'll make money but who the hell on his right mind would buy with names like these?!

    Am I wrong to think that these commemorative plates are equivalent to Vanity plates? If they are, I don't see why people would spend so much on some nasty name on your car.

    Yeah, yeah, yeah, there are a few names that might be good but I doubt it if they are going to be able to sell these or if they do, its going to be a hard sell. They probably should have consulted a Marketing consultant before they decided on the names they want to issue so they can easily sell them.

    cyberdoc95, you can choose what name, or whatever combination of letters and numbers, you would like to appear on the comm plate, provided that it is not yet taken by others.

    The names listed are the events/institutions being commemorated by the license plates.

    However, the 5 letter alphanumeric combination is up to the buyer.

    In my case, I ordered the DOTC plates and chose "MEDIC" for my alphanumerics.

    bardigones,
    Special edition ng PGMA inaguration plates yung G-L-O-R-I-A. They are street legal.

    I've heard that there are some commemorative plates which exempts you from the color-coding. Is this true? Are there any on the current list? I am just curious on what's the real deal =)

    take a closer look at what the newspaper clipping that OTEP posted...

    no commemoratives plates are exempted from the UVVRP. only a limited number of vanity plates are exempted from the UVVRP.

    pati if it claims to be "color-coding" exempt... only 50 vanity plates were exempted from the UVVRP scheme.

    We got a #8 Euro Chamber of Commerce Anniv plate (valid until Jan 2005), which came with a windshield sticker validity date, registration card, and had our OR/CR stamped by LTO to show legit commem plates - and it's not in the list!

    We have not been stopped by any traffic law enforcer, instead we get some occassional salutes from guards (some perk). So far we have seen only 2 or 3 other cars sporting a similar plate.

    Should we be worried that it may not be valid?

    Kita ko na ang mga crimewatch plates na iyan.

    Be wary of license plates that are generic (e.g. MAYOR, KAGAWAD, COUNCILOR, etc.). Most of them are not legal substitutes for your standard license plate.

    And they are not on the LTO list. Better call the LTO first. Sayang pera.

    I guess the best is to be content with your original registered LTO plate - no one can fault you for using it.
