Star Trek License Plate Lands Fan in Costly Ticket Trouble
TL;DR
A 76-year-old Star Trek fan, Beda Koorey, has been receiving thousands of dollars in traffic tickets due to her old custom license plate, NCC-1701, which she surrendered in 2020. The tickets are mistakenly sent to her because other Trekkies are using novelty plates with the same number. Despite not owning a car, Koorey is overwhelmed by the tickets, which include red light, speeding, and toll violations. New York lawmakers and a lawyer have stepped in to help resolve her situation.
