I just thought I'd give everyone an update which is....nothing. I have not heard back from the Department of Licensing despite that they said I would within "a week or so". I will try calling them tomorrow to see where I stand with the duplicate plate issue. It seems a bit ridiculous that they seem to be so lax about it. I also have not received any bills from the other Tesla driver using the toll bridges with "my" plate nor have I received any from me using it once since my original post.

Perhaps the best solution is to change your mind, and get your new Tesla a plate that says "VOLT" instead! Ok, just kidding :scared:

I know it was just a joke, but there is already a guy in WA with a plate that says VOLT.
And no, it is not on a Volt. It's on a Geo Metro conversion, made long before the GM Volt existed. It causes no end of confusion when he displays it...there are constantly people walking by and saying "Oh that's the Volt..."

Washington has a form on their website that will tell you if a vanity plate is taken:
WA State Licensing: Look up personalized plates

Great, so I can check if my plate of choice is available in WA, but not in OR where I need it.
:facepalm:
Edited to add: yep, two of my three top choices are still available in WA.

I wonder if this has anything to do with why this situation happened:
520 toll gouging stories get more preposterous | The Seattle Times

I got caught up in this, uh, er, extortion. Got fined for late payments because my card was cancelled/replaced due to the big Home Depot hack. But an additional fine was applied after I sent the payment in but before they got it so I never heard about it. Since I wasn't using the the bridges, I never bothered to update the card. They never sent me notification of the additional fine so I got a fine on that being late too. In all, I wound up paying something like $250 for 6 crossings. Arguing with them was like talking to a wall.
Yeah, I know I owed the original tolls and it's my fault for not remembering that card was on file with them but the level of fines and lack of notification is out of line.

The state ended up taking away the plate (OHM) from me since they could not track down the other driver. Tesla would not give out his current info to them either. So their solution was to let me get another plate for free, so I grabbed SILENCE. I was amazed it was available.

Thanks for the reminder PhilBa! Just updated my card with Good2Go for the same reason.
Glad this worked out and you got a pretty cool plate as a replacement rpo!
