2 miles of dual c/w near me.

Cars will take to lane 2 on joining it and stick to lane 2 all the way along even when lane 1 is totally empty, just because they want to be in lane 2 at the end to turn right at the roundabout.

Often doing 40mph when the road is 70!

Yep thats the one.

Only seen 1 missing front plate today not the usual trash, actually quite a clean 08 ( according to the rear plate). 3 series. Saw 3 yesterday.

This.

I'm always one for being a generous driver and I'll always slow down to allow someone to turn - if there aren't too many cars too close behind me. ESPECIALLY during peak traffic times.

Fair enough if it's slow moving traffic though.

Tongue in cheek.......................

Was'nt there a couple caught on film on Sat evening last in a blue e type with a false number plate and driving off without seat belts?

One law for the mighty one for the poor?

Probability must conclude that apart from a VERY tiny proportion of cases, it's deliberate.

I, unfortunately, have frequently to drive within Bradford, Keighley, Nelson, Burnley, Blackburn...
I see very numerous cars like this.

Of course if the police DID stop them, the plea would always be "Yeah just found it fallen off this mornin innit boss, an ampt ad time to get new screws yet innit" and it would be difficult for the police to prove otherwise at that moment.

I suggest police cars go equipped with a rivet gun or extreme superglue, so they can very firmly re-affix the plate for the hapless owner, and record the registration on a database to say it had been found in this condition, for any future reference. Would only take a few minutes.

Then there are the plates with the illegal character spacing, or even curly italic fonts.
Drives me nuts: Why do they think they can so blatantly stick two fingers up at the law of the land?
