Stolen Number Plates Options

[patriboo]

Hey All,

So I came back to my Celica after a **** day at work today to find both my number plates missing... I reported it to the police who said this was very common and not much to worry about?

My initial thoughts that I'd the police on my door tomorrow morning arresting me for a bank robbery however from looking on the web it appears the more common use for this is

- Congestion charge avoidance
- Petrol Station drive offs
- Parking fines

Has this happened to anyone else, am I in for a flood of speeding, parking and congestion charge fines?

Is it worth re-registering the car wth a new plate?

Cheers?

Nah i doubt it man....i actually know people they do us...or i herd how it works. What people do mostly on motorcylces is steal plates from registered bikes and put them on stolen bikes and people usually trades the plates so its harder for police to run lincense plate numbers and track it. I dont know if that makes any sense but thats the general idea.
