In Fiction
Some characters in fiction films and television series own vehicles with vanity plates. This can be used as a comical element, as "Outatime" in the DeLorean DMC-12 time machine featured at the science fiction film Back to the Future. Also, it can display the character's eccentricity or egocentricity. An example is Buck in the action/thriller film Kill Bill Volume 1, whose Pussy Wagon pickup truck has a "PSY WGN" plate.
