Fitting 4D number plates

[M5Rick]

Do they really work in protecting your licence from the ever increasing scourge of speed cameras and hand held ones? It's been claimed by a well known gazette that they do to a point so let's have your views on them.

For men who indulge romantically with other men, and Ford Fiesta owners only.

And someone has got their wires crossed with 3D/4D plates and ghost plates.

The 3D/4D plates work perfectly fine with ANPR cameras. Ghost plates don't as they obscure/alter the lettering so that cameras dont pick them up, but they look ok to the eye, however, I think the repercussions for perverting the course of justice or similar if you get caught are probably worse than your average speeding conviction if that makes sense?

Looks like the DM has added ketchup to the vanilla ice cream then if that's how it is.

I have no idea what that's meant to mean! Ketchup in ice cream sounds more appealing than 4D plates though!

DM is a daily newspaper which I'm sure you know and they did an article of how 4D plates fitted to your vehicle could prevent you from being tagged if caught being over the speed limit!..hence it doesn't agree with your assumption that 4D wouldn't so there's the ruined desert if you get my drift
You can look it up in DM!

You are incorrect, the Officer would have to prove beyond reasonable doubt in court that you purchased your number plates for the sole purpose of not triggering speed cameras, which would be unlikely, you would likely get away with the £100 fine for a dodgy plate, but no points and no suspended sentence.

I'm an ex cop in the UK so I have a pretty good idea 😃
