Many cars have number plates made up to look like something that there aren't. Like 15 being displayed IS. Do the police not bother about this and how do cars get an MOT with plates like this.
It tends to be wanny be's who can't afford a cherished number.
Waht are the Laws around this, and do the polic ever bother aboit this ?

cars are never checked now for dodgy plates when getting an mot as this doesn,t effect the safety of the car.
however i have had experience of these plates and i have been stopped ny police before so i wouldn,t recommend anyone using them. better off saving and getting a proper private plate registered.

Occasionally the police will prosecute for incorrect spacing or typeface. However, they don't routinely pull cars over for it - they'll prosecute you for it if they've already pulled you for something else.
You will fail an MOT with illegal number plates, but many people have a set of legal plates they put on for MOT, and then switch back to the illegal ones once they've got their MOT certificate.

Why might you even prefer to take photos of folk's plates? so a approaches as i know this is criminal as long as you at the instant are not trespassing to take the photos. besides the undeniable fact that for even though reason it fairly is you delight in photographing strangers vehicle's plates, you're able to ask. i does not choose people taking photos something that belongs to me without my consent, to admire different persons i think of you mustn't do it. and actually posting them on the internet looks a splash violating. i've got under no circumstances heard of this being against any regulation, even though if that doesn't recommend that's criminal.

most people change the plates for the mot, but the trick plates are only for off road use,but as you say, the police take no action...too busy catching speeders going 3mph over the limit..easy work
