You should turn up the exposure adjustment (+1 or +2 or something) when taking a photo with a highly reflective object like license plate or road sign in the frame. This is because that object will reflect so much light that the camera will do a shorter exposure - it tries to expose the brighest object in the picture properly. That's why the license plate in this photo is lovely and bright but you're all so dark :)
If you turn up the exposure adjustment, the license plate will blow out to white, but everything else will be much better exposed, which is probably what you want. I've had this same problem myself in the past.
