"State Line." Nations and States have borders. Even if they're not defended.
State highways have lines.

OMG
Not 15 minutes ago I heard someone say, "O.M.G." I understand typing the abbreviation, but saying the letters takes as many syllables as saying the words. Even worse, the speaker was older than 20. Maybe older than 30.

People who say "you" instead of "thou" as the second person singular pronoun.

What if you forget your PIN number for the ATM machine?ScooterSissy wrote:Two of my favorite "redundants" have already been mentioned:
"ATM Machine" - ATM stands for "automatic teller machine". You don't need to find an "automatic teller machine machine"
and
"Hot water heater" - the device heats cold, or even warm, water. Hot water doesn't need to be heated. It's a "Water heater"
Since I'm a professional geek, I'll add
"NIC Card". These are the "network interface cards" (these days they're usually actually built in) that let your computer connect to a network. Much like ATM machines, you don't need a network interface card card
In the same vane. Just kidding. In the same vein,
LCD display
SAT test
DC current and AC current
HIV virus
VIN number
ABS system or ABS brakes
and
CHL license
