Next Question: I have asked numerous friends and acquaintances what the little square is in the middle of the (Colorado license) plate. The vast majority says it is a dash or something that separates the two sets of numbers and letters. NOT TRUE I tell them. It's a representation of the state of Colorado. All states have their State's image centered on their State's license plates. Colorado is no different, but I think most don't know it.
A viewer named Brad sent that question into Next.
Not to dash your hopes, Brad, but it's not the shape of the state.
The Department of Revenue checked with Colorado Correctional Industries, the prison-based company that makes the plates. They say they actually get this question often, but no. Sometimes a dash is just a dash.
