Queensland first for emojis license plates 

Therefore, the drivers will only get an opportunity to accent the status quo of the license plate and cannot have a plate abound in emojis only, suggest reports. The bill also makes Vermont the first state in the United States to approve the bill, making it the second state in the world after Australia’s Queensland that makes emojis license plates for $335, as per the reports.

Internet users have sparked a discussion in favour of the bill expressing their interest in an emoji license plate. Some already want to move to Vermont to be able to avail the opportunity of flaunting an emoji on their car. Some of the hilarious reactions have popped up on Twitter by the people gearing up to embrace this new Traffic Act.
