There's a guy in ~~new york~~ California that gets every ticket filled out incorrectly because his license plate is
NULLEdit: Found a Wired article
I thought the story was that he got a lot of tickets that weren't meant for him instead
Yeah anytime any ticket was entered without a license plate, it would default to
NULL. His license plate is"NULL", which, depending on how you structure your database/query, compares as equivalentThat's just bad coding.
His name isn't a null value, it's just "Null" - they need to write better software.
yes even the police agree. He can't change his license plate either bc he has hundreds of outstanding tickets
Poor choice, then.
He should ask the guy from California for help with what to do
