While Pennsylvania legislators mull changes to toughen the commonwealth's drunken driving laws - and Lancaster County District Attorney Craig Stedman is backing other measures he thinks could get more repeat offenders off the roads - the state of Ohio has taken a different, more visible approach.

Since 1967, Ohio has issued special license plates for DUI offenders, sometimes called "scarlet letter plates" or "party plates." The red-lettering-on-yellow plates were initially issued at the behest of judges. But a sweeping overhaul of Ohio's drunken driving laws in 2004 mandated the plates for second offenses and instances where a driver's blood-alcohol level is twice the legal limit.
