There's a guy in ~~new york~~ California that gets every ticket filled out incorrectly because his license plate isNULL

Edit: Found a Wired article

I thought the story was that he got a lot of tickets that weren't meant for him instead

[-] Sasquatch@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 month ago

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 equivalent

That's just bad coding.

His name isn't a null value, it's just "Null" - they need to write better software.

[-] Sasquatch@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 month ago

yes even the police agree. He can't change his license plate either bc he has hundreds of outstanding tickets

[-] shartgargle@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago

Poor choice, then.

He should ask the guy from California for help with what to do
