• Yep annoyingly. I thought a video and photo would be enough but apparently all you’ve got to do is use someone else’s number plate and then you can go around running people over freely.

    Depressing turn of events. I would have thought getting caught running cloned plates would carry a hefty punishment so who’s doing it?

  • As usual, the probability of getting caught would be the limiting factor, I suspect.

    Plod sees right type of car with kosher-looking plates and wouldn’t have reason to stop it.

  • If you think of how much driving in London must be costing now with CC+ULEZ+Parking+whatever. Cloned plates and not paying CC+ULEZ for a month daily is something like £1k so it soon gets to be that if they catch someone once a year and the fine is less than 10k they are morally bankrupt but quids in.

  • I imagine that most of the people who get caught have also done something else wrong so the additional punishment probably isn't that high.
