The plates are usually like WT1234, WX1234, WV1234, etc. Normal Minnesota plates are ABC-123, so the 'whiskey plates' really stand out. By having the whiskey plates, you agree to allow LEO's to pull you over with no probable cause. It is kind of like a scarlet letter.

Well not quite... Most DUI convictions have a stipulation about receiving those plates, so most of the time you dont apply for it... they just give it to you.
Secondly, They cannot pull you over without cause... that has gone back and forth several times and currently they cannot pull you over without a good reason... but then again, there are TONS of good reasons to pull people over... ex: Not using a turn signal.
