Beda Koorey , a 76-year-old Long Island resident, has been hit with thousands of dollars worth of traffic tickets that originate from just about everywhere in the United States .

She has a custom license plate that paid tribute to her favorite show, Star Trek , that bears the number NCC-1701, the registry identifier for the Starship Enterprise in the original Star Trek television series.

The New York Department of Motor Vehicles says there is nothing in the state’s system that connects her to the plates, which she gave up years ago .
