MOT farce! Number plates....

<< < (4/4)

Ricky:
i suppose this is to close the loophole of individuals buying plates online which dont conform

So they can trace plates back to who made them, stops people making plates that have altered numbers to make names. (they just sell them as show plates)

b, display a BSAU 14d marking

Now that's a fantastic idea!  I wonder if anybody's tried that?  One in the eye for Ken if it worked.  Whilst I'm no fan of personalised plates, I could go for that one if I had a white truck...

paulhumphries:
Slightly OT did you know that if caught with "non standard" plates the Police could inform DVLA and thus if caught again the plate can be withdrawn and another issued ?
That means the idiot who spends a fortune on a plate only to have to add dots and incorrect spacing so it spells out something can get it taken off them and a bog standard plate issued instead.
BTW AFAIK they don't get a refund of what ever they spent to buy it in the first place  :lol:

alaric:
What really annoys me with this is that the government have been turning a bling eye to the re-spacing for a long time, as it means that more people have been paying them to change plates to something they can re-space to mean something personal.

Yet another government cash-cow!
