I recently put my private plate on my new car and the automatic online system has placed the business address within my address.

I live on what used to be a farm and even though we don't farm ourselves we do run a non farming business from here.

Over the years with these automated systems it often throws up the business address before or as well as the residential address.

For example my V5C Says:

Thin White Duke
Made Up Company Limited
Made Up Farm
London
SW 19

Is it worth me changing it to omit the business line from the address? Will it matter to anyone - the police for example if I got pulled over?

The only thing I can think that may be an issue is that the insurance have it listed without the business line in the address.

I'm probably making a mountain out of a molehill but thought I'd ask the question. I know some people who still have their address on their licence as their parents address, years after moving out.

As long as the name and address mean you are able to be contacted by DVLA, Police in an emergency etc. it's fine.
