Man arrested for using fake license plate he allegedly printed himself

If you’ve ever thought that a fellow driver’s license plate looked sketchy or strange, you’re not alone. Drivers will sometimes print altered or completely fake versions of license plates.

Someone suspected of doing that very thing was arrested in Houston last week.
