What is the license plate game?
The license plate game is a game that is played in the United States while on a long car ride. It typically involves using a sheet, map, or list of the 50 United States of America. While one person is driving, other people will try to find as many different state license plates as possible.
Some people may choose to just list and remember the states they found and work together, while others will turn it into a competitive game in which they try to find all 50 states first. Some states are harder to find than others, depending on where you live and which states are closest to where you are going.
