A little game I came up a while ago, it's kinda fun

1. Acquire one of those “map of provinces/states/countries I visited” tracker apps on your phone, or similar (personally I use this one)

2. Go outside and look at car plates

3. If you see a car from a state/province/country you haven't seen yet, add it to your tracker

4. Try to complete your continent and share the map!

1. Don't do anything sus while looking at plates (don't take pics, go in private places without permission, etc.)

2. The plate should be affixed to a vehicle according to regulations

3. It must be a vehicle you have seen by yourself on the street and roads while playing the game (no photos, video, or something you might have remembered from before you started playing)

3a. It counts if you have previously documented your sightings, which counts as playing the game (e.g. you posted about it on social media)

4. You can look it up if you're not sure, but at the end you should be reasonably sure of the provenance of the plate

5. (Optional) U-Haul and similar companies who massively register all of their trucks in a single state kind of doesn't count, the vehicle must come from Arizona to get Arizona

5a. If you ever see a U-Haul registered somewhere other than Arizona, it definitely counts

5b. If you can figure out the provenance of such a vehicle (e.g. the U-Haul location where it comes from), it counts as this province/state/country in your tracker

• Obviously, your home state/province is a free space
• A lot of jurisdictions issue many variants for their plates, you might want to track this as well (hard mode!)
• In the US and Canada, plates are registered per state, province or territory, and it's usually very easy to tell them apart
  • Federal governments also have their own plate design, mostly for military vehicles and other cars owned by the federal government, tracker apps usually won't let you check the entire country separately from the provinces/states but you might be able to add it to another category as a workaround
  • You may be able to see France plates with a number starting with SPM, in which case you can check St-Pierre-et-Miquelon
• In other countries, there is one plate design nationally but you may be able to tell in which region the plate has been registered by the number, markings, or other distinguishing features. See also Vehicle registration plate
