In Fiction
Some characters in fiction films and television series own vehicles with vanity plates. This can be used as a comical element, as "Outatime" in the DeLorean DMC-12 time machine featured at the science fiction film Back to the Future. Also, it can display the character's eccentricity or egocentricity. An example is Buck in the action/thriller film Kill Bill Volume 1, whose Pussy Wagon pickup truck has a "PSY WGN" plate.

Famous quotes containing the word fiction:
“I write fiction and I’m told it’s autobiography, I write autobiography and I’m told it’s fiction, so since I’m so dim and they’re so smart, let them decide what it is or it isn’t.”
—Philip Roth (b. 1933)
“We ignore thriller writers at our peril. Their genre is the political condition. They massage our dreams and magnify our nightmares. If it is true that we always need enemies, then we will always need writers of fiction to encode our fears and fantasies.”
—Daniel Easterman (b. 1949)
