Plate delete
 
Will I get away with just a warning if I’m pulled for displaying no front number plate. Got a Perrin delete plate on for aesthetics lol.

RobsyUK 30 November 2021 09:21 PM

You may get a warning first. Then 7 days to fix it.

RockyRoad 01 December 2021 12:23 AM

Why? You know you should be displaying a front plate so why do it?

Bean1984 01 December 2021 05:33 AM

Depends on the police at that time mate. Some will let you go, some will just go n write you a ticket straight away but either way it's a legal requirement so you know the potential outcome if you don't display your reg number

Vxr2010 01 December 2021 08:35 AM

again it depends on who stops you , a ticket would be the least of your issues , no front plate on purpose then you are avoiding cameras etc on propose , at extreme a night in a cell , a car being seized , a lot of traffic plod would be less than sympathetic

Why do such a thing? I mean just ****ing look at it 🤤

Didn’t take long to get pulled over lol. Literally a street from home and got told to get it fixed. They did ask for my name, I guess to make sure I matched up etc.

I just see an ugly raised spot where there should obviously be a plate :lol1: To each their own I guess. Think you've got pretty lucky with whoever pulled you over.

Put a small plate on instead. I used a smaller plate for 2 years and never once got a tug. One was very small.

"Sorry sire didn't notice, someone must have stolen it?"

-This is what I've used. They can't prove that I'll lie and they can't accuse that my plate would not have been stolen multiple times. Not at least here in Finland. Nor can they seize your (my) car.

And I agree, the Scooby or about any other performance oriented car out there looks better without (front) plate. But my reasons were on our national habit of placing speed cameras not at the suburbs but a money making machines for example at the end of the dual carriage road "overtaking lanes", speed cameras at downhill where limit goes from 60 to 50mph in the middle of nowhere and so forth. Nothing but money collecting. Here's my F-car and old Scoobie:

Can't exactly use that excuse when you've very obviously removed it and replaced it with a blank like the Perrin

lockheed 01 December 2021 03:31 PM

Ive had my plate infront of my sun visor before and never got pulled.

silver-sub 01 December 2021 03:39 PM

I didn't have the correct spacing for 1 letter and they gave me a 14 day notice to get corrected.

Gave it a wash. I left the plate on the dash passenger side at the very least 🤷🏽‍♂️

matt-c 03 December 2021 12:33 PM

I think messing with the plate just risks drawing unwanted (cough) attention.

stamina_daddy 05 December 2021 07:18 PM

Talking of offensive plates there's a range rover in South London that has H8 FEDS
they missed a trick there. Ha ha.
not that its really offensive but they need to update for sure.
But I bet he gets pulled frequently.
