Buy them a pint, top lads. The number plate law is the biggest farce in recent history, it DOESNT stop criminals it just penalises normal law abiding drivers....and mean we have to pay loads more for number plates!!!

I say! You aren't suggesting that the Government has introduced laws that penalise ordinary folk are you? :shock: :shock:
As for it being a farce, I couldn't possibly comment! :wink:
MudRat:
The Number plte has to be 90 degrees to the ground ie Upright, not sloping etc, it has to be clearly visible from the front and rear, no obstructions. :lol:

Just type 'show plates' into Google and you can buy number plates 100% legally on the net without ID.
To the letter of the law, you shouldn't use these on the road but, come on, they look just like the ones from halfurds, just without the BS number and an address of the maker.
As already said, the police do not know when the plates were made so they could have been made before the silly number plate law came in. As long as they look right, they'll be fine.....the police have a lot more to worry about than a missing BS number.
Trust me, I know about this (say no more, say no more :wink: )

Not true, my mates landy has just gone through an MOT with one on a slope. The law just says it must be readable, nowhere does it say that it has to be at 90 degrees.
