A recent viral moment on social media started with what looked like an ordinary license plate spotted at a Perth shopping center. At first glance, the plate on a Kia Sportage seemed unremarkable. But when Jeffrey shared a photo of it on The Bell Tower Times 2.0 Facebook page, things quickly took off online.
The plate read 370HSSV, a string of characters that appeared random—until someone flipped it upside down. That’s when the hidden word appeared, sparking surprise and laughter. Within hours, the clever twist had spread across platforms, with thousands joining in on the fun.
Many praised the creativity, while others were amused that it slipped past approval checks. Western Australia’s transport authority reportedly rejects around 1,000 plates each year for questionable wording, yet this one managed to make it through. Past applications like SAUC3D and RAMP4GE were turned down, but this code found a loophole.
The viral moment is a reminder of how quickly ordinary details can capture attention online. Something as simple as a license plate became a talking point across the internet—proof that humor and a bit of ingenuity can turn everyday life into entertainment for millions.
