We got ours a couple weeks ago, but haven\'t seen anyone elses.
RecommendedWe have not gotten our replacement yet. :(
RecommendedGot ours also, Im also in the DE list.. hehe.
RecommendedSaw one in Tigard on mon? they look good
Recommendedohh and not to be a spelling nazi cause I can\'t spell worth beans and could care less but ... \"siting\" ?
Recommendedjosh
wow. duh. fixed.
thank you.
RecommendedI saw one on a Subaru a couple of days ago on Hawthorne. Perhaps the same Subaru as in the photo above!
RecommendedSubaru\'s get first issue.
RecommendedGot mine in time for my birthday this week DENK
RecommendedI saw one on a Scion today at lunch downtown.
RecommendedWay to be psyched about Cars !
RecommendedAren\'t cars awesome !
Got mine earlier this week.
RecommendedRyNO Dan- (11)
RecommendedYes, bicyclists are noticing cars. Now if only we can get cars to notice bicyclists. Isn\'t that what this plate is all about?
There\'s one on a ZipCar here on Millikan in Beaverton. This version looks nice!
Yeah, some of us have a car or two (or three), but we\'re all cyclists and hope more car drivers see us and don\'t hit us. Having a state-approved way to help achieve that end is something to be psyched about for sure!
(My perception is that the public takes the message more seriously from a license plate than a \"special interest\" bumper sticker).
Recommendedhmmm, odd. suddenly I want one...
Recommendedbeen slacking on sending my old ones back
Recommendedso,ok there gone now.......not to bad...
the new ones.
Got mine earlier this week! Haven\'t put them on the car yet, but I plan to do that tomorrow.
Must be a Subaru thing...
RecommendedStill waiting...
RecommendedA couple of friends in Salem have them. But I\'ll stick to my Permanent Disabled Veterans plate.
RecommendedSent my old one back right away, but haven\'t gotten the new ones.
RecommendedThe yellow OBRA truck got it\'s plate almost a month ago. I got mine for the Mini this week. I am DEPH. Does that mean that I am not as shallow as I thought?
RecommendedZOMG cars are evil, shouldnt have a new I-5 bridge built for them, all lanes should be turned into bike lanes, blah, blah. . No really, I\'m all for bikes, on the road (but mainly off road).
Its just funny to see all the negative car comments on this site all the time, but suddenly if there is a picture of a bike on a car\'s license plate then suddenly cars are great!
RecommendedI wonder if the newly issued plates are coming sooner then the re-issues for those of us who had to send them back... It better come before the temporary tag expires in a few weeks!
Recommendedour temp tags expired TWICE in the time it took them to get the design issue figured out. What a pain! Our plates are in the DD series, and we got them about two weeks ago. Our original application went in on Jan 8th, so I think they might be processing those before the ones that need replacing.
And we have a Jeep, not a Subaru ;)
RecommendedI haven\'t seen these in person yet, but I think Zipcars seem like a natural place to put these beautiful plates.
RecommendedGot mine today, new issued as this month coincided nicely with my tags expiring. Up to DET_.
RecommendedSaw DEAG on a Prius this week. Nice.
RecommendedFinally got mine on Saturday. They are also DEU_ plates. They do look great!
Recommendedi saw one on a jaguar in front of me on SE 11th Ave this weekend! :o)
RecommendedYou guys in Oregon have me versions of a licence plate than anywhere else!... This is an awesome cause... I hope the money raised by this goes to a share the road program... though just the awareness is worth much!... Here in BC we need a program like this... I\'ll have to make the MV dept aware of this programme you have.

RecommendedI\'ve got mine, and my friend Jules Kopel-Bailey (candidate for State Rep in HD42, inner SE Portland) tells me he got his too.
RecommendedThey look nice but I already have personalized plates that say SHAR RD and I don\'t want to give them up!
Recommendedseen on a Zipcar too? that\'s cool. I drive Zipcars, and they all usually have special issue plates, like Cultural Trust, etc., I figured it\'d be a matter of time before they got some \"Share the Road\" tags. Now if they\'d start putting racks on top of the Subaru wagons, I\'d be totally stoked.
RecommendedGot mine last Saturday!
Recommendedi saw that car (pictured above) on Hawthorne today. he\'s everywhere!
RecommendedThis is my car and she lives on the westside. I\'ve seen a few others like me so wave if you have one!
RecommendedThat\'s my car and she lives on the Westside. I\'ve seen a few other plates out there so wave if you have one!
RecommendedGot mine, but haven\'t gotten in the car lately! They look cool...
