I have committed a Crime

I have a personalised number plate that while it  conforms to the legal spec seems to be unreadable by many NR systems and am allways suprised when a barrier lifts, it may however account for why I get no tolls charges on a stretch of motorway where cameras are employed

Write your comments here...Not being awkward, but how can it be personalised and legal.

If you are going through tolls and not being charged because your plate is unreadable, beware - as ALL instances will be held, and will mean a marker on the PNC against your number plate. You may well be stopped one day by a mobile ANPR unit and be hit with all the charges.

I make the assumption that given the spacing was clearly against the rules that the plate was not made by a bonafide producer of regulation number plates, if so it fails on two counts. Perhaps this was reflected in the size of the fine?

David, I understand that any number plate violation,  £100 is the fine.

Admiral 

Why do it.

Because I only found out when the little lad in uniform told me that a £100 fine would be imposed

This scurvy crew have been at the rum rashion again. 

Is that another 100 lashes then?

Yes-Up against the grating!

it is a bit of a p*** take when DVLA sell registrations that encourage names to be made from them 

Admiral - you should be lucky you dont live in Taliban country  North Wales. The cops only do motoring here.

...I do not think there is much crime commited by the other population BAAAAAAA

Dont see the problem.  The law about number plates is clear enough. Have the plates made up correctly by accredited people and no action will be taken by the forces of law and order. ------------- Simples !!!

You might want to write to your local Chef Officer or PCC      (Excuse me while I spit on the ground). Pointing out the minor nature of the offence and its detrimental effect on Police Public relations.

"Committed a Crime eh? Perhaps he ought to go back to Training School and redo the definition of what a Crime is!

Merve you have put your finger firmly on what ails the Police Service of today. A lack of basic training, not only in the law and the essential points to prove in any court of law, but also proper training in the art of discretion and of dealing with members of the public who might have with no guilty intent infringed against minor legislation.

The service today is failing  to carry the public with it, and as a result is creating problems for itself in the future, and is also failing in its responsibilty to the public at large.

I can identify a number of key areas of failure, but as the failings are predominately due to abysmal Home Office and ministerial organisation, it will only result in the thread being pulled!
