Georgia Confidential: Georgia state officials' cars sport stealthy tags

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has a story on how "special" some government workers are.
Nancy Hall, acting head of Georgia Public Broadcasting, drives a car with untraceable license plates — the kind intended for an undercover cop worried that a blown cover could cost a life.

Her state car is just one of about 6,000 vehicles in Georgia that have been issued the stealthy tags, many for no clear reason. When police check the numbers on the confidential plates, they get back either no information or a phony name and address.
Nothing like different rules for the "special class" of citizens.
