I have been pulled 7 times over my number plates , most police have just let me go 4 said they will take me to court, 3 decided not to . The one taking me to court did all the checks and my number plates passed all tests , so he changed his tactic and is taking me to court because they don't have the post code or bs number but I don't see why I should advertise someone else's replacement number plate business on my car . As for the bs number i don't understand why some very small letters and numbers you can only read if you are a foot away have any relevance on identifying the car as they have checked the car from the reg that they can clearly see . I feel the police are only on the road to extract as much money from the public as possible

I see a few tinted plates around and wonder how long they will be driving before being pulled, surprised the police don't go for perverting the course of justice like they do with laser diffusers.
It's impossible for me to be perverting the course of justice , they can be seen from the required distance , speed cameras,anpr can see the plate If your plates are stamped with the BS number then in the event you are summonsed, then the police have to prove they do not conform. If they are not so stamped, it is down to the accused.
If non-compliant plates have a BS number stamped on them then the person manufacturing the plate, if they are in the UK possibly but definitely England/Wales commit an offence.

t anyways.Why bother putting yourself through all this hassle just so your plates can look alittle darker? I just don't get it.... I couldn't be arsed.
If you give the Police an obvious reason to pull you, they will pull you, wasting your time, their time and in this case probably a courts time.
Just get a proper set of plates made up and this waste of time and energy will go away. Simple.

If everyone bowed down like you we would all become slaves , I believe people should live how they want as long as it's not causing harm to anyone else live and let live I say . People wonder why they live a crap life is because they are involved in everyone else's live to have time to sort their own out If you give the Police an obvious reason to pull you, they will pull you, wasting your time, their time and in this case probably a courts time.

Nice Strawman fallacy you are building there. Would you like to put your tinted plates on it to help it burn better?You want to waste your time and money, go right ahead, just don't then whine about your time and money being wasted.

Everybody is allowed an opinion, my opinion of your car might not be to your liking I don't really care much for others opinions I just get on with my life they way I want
Fair enough, but be prepared to get pulled over for your plates.I don't know how tinted they are or how 'wrong' they look but given that (as an example) many motorbikes have undersized plates and never get pulled for it, then I'd suspect, after 7 pulls, there's something about yours that Plod really don't like?
If I was getting regularly pulled for something, I'd change it so it didn't happen again but, each to their own...
