Given that both are valid (Which is stupid in the first place), then how hard can it be to test for both combinations before issuing a fine.

The other option is to make the symbols look more difficult, a diagonal line through a zero is how the rest of the world fixed the same problem

Are there any other conflicting symbols - such as 1, I, L, etc.
