"Controlled explosions have been carried out on a van in Gatwick Airport's North Terminal car park... officers are now looking for two men who entered the car park in the untaxed, uninsured and unregistered van."

But, unregistered doesn't mean it's uninsured and untaxed and shouldn't be driven on the road.

It does in this instance, because its untaxed and uninsured so shouldn't be on the road.

I think blowing it up is justified

So if I take an unregistered car out of my showroom and drive it you claim it's untaxed and uninsured?

Is that a serious question...?

Am I due a whoosh!?

I drove into Heathrow airport and parked up in one of the short stay car parks recently and on returning to my car noticed the reg plates had been half inched. At first I thought it might have happened there but of course realised. Why would someone be so stupid to chose one of the most security conscience places on the planet to nick stuff?

I called the police and eventually found out via ANPR that I had entered the area plateless, they had been stolen from my driveway. :O I hadn't noticed, just jumped in my car and drove off. Cops didn't seem fussed at all that I had to drive home with no plates and didn't even tell me to get them replaced pronto just gave me a crime #.
