I think I saw a dirty plate getting done !
Discussion
I thought this had gone the same way as parking on the pavement, as in not enforced anymore.
On Friday I saw a car pulled over by a plain Police vehicle in Worcester, and the chap was cleaning his plate.
A big thumbs up to plod from me on this one, it isn't just about identifying a vehicle (although that can obviously be important), the plate is also a fooking great reflector.

My idiot step-son thought my wife's plate looked dirty recently. He cleaned it, but ignored the equally dirty lights next to it....
While you cleaned neither.Yet he's the idiot?
Of course, we shouldn't leave Mrs surveyor out either, as apparently she is also incapable of cleaning the lights and number plates on her own car!

Most kids wouldn't have cleaned it at all, so I don't think he deserves to be called an idiot for it. I'm sure your wife was pleased he did it for her, yet you slate him. Just seems unnecessary.
Thanks for you input. In terms if idiot things he has done this is minor and irrelevant. To the stage where it was not worth mentioning...berlintaxi said:

I'm sure he speaks highly of you.He is also a very pleasant genuine caring young gent, who would go out of his way for anyone. For the record.

Yes.Quite right.
You would never see me saying hurtful things to someone like that.

In fact he missed his last theory test because he'd lost his provisional card. Later found on his shelves in his room.

I stop dirty plates all the time. I carry a pack of wet wipes with me and offer them a wet wipe or a ticket. They always choose the wet wipe.
Just last week, 2 stops just to advice on number plate ended up being no insurance seizures.
Well done, wished more coppers would do the same, and it just goes to show what a simple traffic stop can lead to.Just last week, 2 stops just to advice on number plate ended up being no insurance seizures.
What on earth is this about? Really, who cares about dirty plates apart from you and plod?
PH has really gone to the dogs.
