<p>[quote user="Deggesty"]</p> <p>California vs Alberta? The powers that were in California certainly were arrogant and overbearing.</p> <p>A little more understandable was the North Carolina-South Carolina difference that came up in either the late forties or early fifties: North Carolina had been switching the colors on its plates from one year to the next; I don't remember jsut what the colors were, but we could say they were black on white one year and white on black the next. And the powers that were in South Carolina decided that the new year's plates would have the same color as North Carolina's new year's plates were going to be. Needless to say, the powers in North Carolina were extremely upset. There was a difference: North Carolina had only one plate for a vehicle, and South Carolina had a front as well as a rear plate--but from a distance from the rear, who could quickly tell which state a car was from?</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>I remember before I-95 was built...you had to be sure you were doing the speed limit on US 301 in the Rocky Mount area...or else you were sure to get a ticket.</p>
