i think that the words 'personal number plates' and 'car written off' says it all

with each set of personal plates you need two sets of documents.
One set says that you own the rights to the personal plates.
The other set assigns those plates to your car. You can't use the personal plates until this second set of paperwork is OK'd by DVLA.
If your car is written off you still own the rights to the personal number plates all you have to do is contact DVLA and have them registered to your new car.
Drive carefully!

Of course someone can be tracked down through the license plate. This is, after all, the purpose of requiring license plates on vehicles. And if you genuinely feel as though you did nothing wrong, you might want to think about this some more. You engaged in aggressive driving that could have easily been categorized as road rage as well. It is not your job, function or legal or moral responsibility to try to prevent someone from passing you. And people who are reasonable and intelligent simply let aggressive drivers get around and in front of them. Your poor decisions escalated this situation. She did not "reckless endanger" anyone without your assistance. You were complicit in her behavior when you made the decision to be an *** and refuse to allow her to pass. You are lucky all she did was take down your license plate. There are plenty of aggressive nuts out there who pull weapons and shoot drivers who engage in the silly and dangerous games that you were playing.

Sure, you paid for them. When I bought my last car, I kept the license plate from the old one. It wasn't a special vanity plate, but it was a plate where a portion of the proceeds goes to the horse industry.

Just found this on the DVLA site:
"You will need to complete a V778/1 - Retention of a Vehicle Registration Number application form. The cost to retain a registration number is £105."
this applies to when you sell your vehicle but want to keep your personal plate, so would apparently apply in the circumstances you describe.

Of Course. It's YOUR number plate. You will have to pay a fee to the DVLA, but you will be able to use it on another car.

If all else fails, get those numbers as a vanity plate.
Why is everyone assuming you're British? Did I miss something?

Yes. Most states allow you to transfer your vanity plates to your new vehicle if it is in the same weight class.
