One cloner car
Both number plates have been stolen from my car. I have reported the crime to the police. I am concerned that these plates may be attached to another car that is involved in a crime, incurs parking charges, speeding tickets, etc. It is easy to see that there may be a large amount of trouble/inconvenience ahead for me. Can you give me any advice regarding what action I should take?
