- we fitted flipping numberplates to our van on the front and the rear, altho it's a bit of fun its total legal in the UK but you have to use them on private land like car parks. which would come in handy just to annoy ANPR cameras, but in some countries have massive issues with flipping numberplates so be careful

Classic. Drove back from Spain once and “someone” had stuck some stickers on our number plate altering one of the digits. Bloody practical jokers meant we couldn’t get any speeding tickets
That's horrendous , hope you're ok 😂😂
@@bren70ssss94 I survived
ANPR will be triggered and not knowing your number plate is illegal is no defence.
Someone 🤣🤡
Hope the someone does it to mine
Might be worth covering your VIN number up on the window screen, just so these mobile wardens can't take a picture and get the reg that way
100% black insulation tape. Most are farmed out to third parties, then farmed again, these wardens are sometimes gimme grunts working cash in hand.
I just use my full cloaking device as its easier to use.
Never known a private “meter maid” to photo the VIN.
Just recently had a successful appeal and not one pic had the VIN, but our appeal (put together myself on behalf of one of my kids) was based on Equalities Act 2011; company then lied in the “further info” part of the appeal. They picked on the wrong guy! No time for that except to threaten criminal action (S2 Fraud after the lie) & civil action under the Equalities Act!
@@pqrstzxerty1296 Who said that??????
@@kentishman5698 I did.
In Canada we have some toll roads that take a picture of your rear plate and send you a bill in the mail.
I made my plate hinge on the bottom side and it is operated by a door lock solenoid. Just to be safe I'm using a momentary switch that when released puts the plate back to its normal position.
When I'm entering the toll road I push and hold the switch while going under the cameras. Take my finger off the switch and the plate returns to normal. Then I do the same when exiting under the cameras. I used the momentary switch just so I wouldn't forget about the plate being down. The police kind of frown upon those things. It's a lot easier on my motorcycle. I can reach back and cover most of my plate with my hand.
Just to clarify, this is all purely in theory as I would never do anything illegal that would defraud our government of money that they so willingly deserve.
The end of this comment ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
What company installed that wicked system? The controversial Austrian bunch? Sounds like the South African eTol that no one paid and crashed the system!
The only legal loophole on this is I guess is to have the same number plate on both flips with the correct reg but on one version have it partially covered in road dirt to hide a letter. Looks like a honest mistake and you can argue I hate washing number plates and alternate them when one get dirty and illegal. Hence drive into anycar park on dirty plates and leave no trace of your corruption!
Here in Norway there is actually legal practial use for plates like this. If you have costum plates with names and words in writing on your car you have to change back to normal plates with normal numbering when driving to any other country then Norway, having changable plates like this would be very practial.
Well you learn something every day . Cheers for that buddy and hello Norway
👍
nice video , love the idea of going into a private car park and overstaying and seeing the photo from the camera
You wouldn't get to see the photo though would you 🤣
Lmao that licence plate flip really cracked me up. Would be handy to deal with a few inappropriate ppl on road.
Unfortunately only allowed on private land buddy 😂
I made my own flip up plate for my motorcycle using mechanical parts such as an old bicycle derailleur gear change lever and cable, works a treat when on track days......
I was thinking about getting a piece of perspex made up with a sandwich of liquid crystal in it and getting that made into a number plate. So it would look identical to a normal plate no borders no mechanical.bits etc. But when voltage is applied the whole thing turns black
👀👀👀 oooohhhh 😏
I came up with the same idea in 1998, still think it would work well.
You can buy that exact thing already. I've seen them advertised. Not sure about European plates, but definitely North American.
You are clever I had some idea but this is brilliant
Patent Pending!
Just looked this up in law
HMHO and DLVA are aware of a couple of thousand people have fitted flip plates on to their cars in GB.
It is now not a £1000 fine but a two years in prison if caught and found guilty by a Court (and Jury)
Quotes -
"Just using them is tantamount to perverting the course of justice."
""Punishment would be immediate custody with sentences ranging from a minimum of three or four months up to two years.
"I would estimate that there could be a few thousand in use on Britain's roads.""
"The National Council for Police Chiefs said that there could be ''movement on legislation in the near future".
But currently it is legal to sell the devices - but drivers can only be punished if they are used to obscure their number plate.
A Home Office spokesman said: ''It is an offence to fail to display or obscure a number plate under the Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994.""
Not an offence as long as the plate meets all DVLA standards. If you drive on a road with the incorrect plates then that's an offence
@@pstanyer1 Seems that way. Using them would be a catastrophically bad idea in this day and age anyway. They'll just compare the picture with those from the nearest ANPR.
“The expression 'on a road or other public place' is employed frequently in road traffic legislation. A public place is a place to which the public, or part thereof, have access. See also DPP v Vivier [1991] Crim LR 637, DPP v Neville [1996] 160 JP 758 and Cutter v Eagle Star Insurance Co. Ltd, Clarke v Kato and Others [1998] 4 All ER 417. Insurance cover is required for the use of a vehicle on a road or a public place.”
Also for avoiding parking invoices, do you change the plates before (on the public Highway) you get into the publicly accessible area that is the car park, or after when the ANPR has already snagged you?
To appease Emma, you could have a blank plate and using a dry wipe marker , change the reg number or phrase for each trip. That way you can say it’s an art project 😎
Ooohhh i like you!! Big hugs from Emma 😊
That's a brilliant idea.
Nice indeed by the way I identify as a millionaire checks bank account sues government lo]l
Many car parks like tesco etc public access so Roaf traffic act applies
I once inadvertently trapped a plastic bag hanging out the boot which regrettably hid my rear plate from the camera, when leaving a car park where I had overstayed..lol
Surely you'd automatically be charged the daily maximum if the camera didn't see you leave 🤭
No hourly or daily charge at all but just 2 hours free supposedly, and car park was 90% empty anyway, so they lost no income and neither did the shops the car park served.@@johno4521

Hole……
In France, they're allowed to *confiscate* the vehicle, not just fine you
France being France
Nice idea, I'm all for getting one over on these car taxers. I'm intrigued as to how these not being illegal ties in with private property that has public access is subject to the rules and laws of the public highway. Wishing you the very best with these, great video as always.
Was just thinking the exact same thing
Hello Hello
I suspect someone's coming a cropper soon. Wompwomp.
Road Traffic Act applies to private land that the public has access to. This would include private car parks etc. Perverting the course of justice carries jail time.
@@jeffreyhall146 Only in criminal cases, not civil? ie speeding not private land parking.
Bloody brilliant Neil, I’m onto it shortly for my SLK 350. Got busted about a year ago after paying for parking. I threw the ticket away a couple of weeks later (as you do) and then receivied a fine of £120 about 2 months later. Totally illegal fine from a greedy car park owner and all caught on their ANPR. I tried to contact them and it was absolutely impossible, they didn’t even have a postal address. I noticed that a barrister replied stating that it was most likely to be illegal, well, why are these unscrupulous car park owners NOT being prosecuted? Not having that happen again! Cheers mucker. Jay.
Why are you paying a fine that arrives 2 months after the fact, if received after 14 days is nun & void
The number plate should have said free parking that would have made them laugh 😂
Next week Neil install’s an Ejection Seat for when Emma is giving him grief!!!! The Scouse Q yes lad
Emma bests Neil by having a parachute on at all times
Laughed my a**e off at the reveal Neil! 😁.. brilliant mate 👍
😂😂 had to be done
I’ve just bought a set of these flippy numberplates for my campervan, the only reason I want them is to stop the busybody public from taking photographs of the vans in car parks because they think we shouldn’t be there.
Where did you buy your flipper plates and how was the quality?
@@09millsey I bought them on eBay, the quality is not too bad all the parts work happily, but the sections you put your numberplates onto our plastic. Having said that though they’re still working fine after five months so I’m happy
@@PhilipHollowaychannel cheers
Update 01 November 2022 -
Amazon has now banned the sale of - flip reg plate holders and curtained reg plates holders.
The police also reinforced in a statement that it is an offence to have these plate holder kits fitted to your car, van, or truck while driving on the public roads, and you will get a FPN with points, they also have the power to seize your car as it would fail a MOT for these modifications, it could also invalidate your insurance as have modifications that not been declared on your insurance = more points and another FPN fine.
Not judging - but as a former criminal barrister I have a couple of points. Firstly, it's been a while since I've looked at road traffic legislation but I'll be amazed if this doesn't infringe them somewhere. The idea you can display a false plate and not infringe the law when there are multiple regs even about size of lettering and so on is concerning. More importantly, there is an argument that the driver could be attempting to pervert the course of justice if used to avoid a criminal penalty such as a speeding fine, and that carries a prison term if convicted. Just my observations.
So b4 you committed any crime you would have to prove yourself innocent? Sounds about right. Think he's stuffed
It will soon be illegal to breath in the direction of a minority group, talk about taking the pi$$. The law of the land covers everything and being based on common sense should be the ONLY law we follow.
Surely if it goes off intent they would have to prove I was intending to pervert the course of justice to avoid a criminal penalty, but I have clearly stated I would not use these on any public roads so would they not have to prove that I was using them on the roads and guilty of using them, just my thoughts 💭
@@UrbanVanlife the very fact you have it on your vehicle would be to only hide the vehicle and driver identity so it’s proof in itself as the device has no other function but to hide a plate.
@@UrbanVanlife I agree but I think you know the way things are going, they will concoct a reason if they cannot find one. Our so-called police force are nothing more than criminals themselves, what with policing 'hate speech' and the like. If any of the 'newcomers' to our shores decides to commit a crime it is overlooked but if WE commit one, it's a different story. It is blatantly obvious that we - the white indigenous of this country are under attack from every angle, why they don't just kick us all out is beyond me, they might as well.
ANPR cameras in car parks…. Exactly the reason why I want these LOL!’
Surely if you were in a car park and an attendant happened to notice they could do you for something like non payment? As for the police noticing, no problem with that where i live. You rarely see a trailer with the correct plate
It's an interesting point, these might actually be useful for trailers that are used by multiple vehicles , and are arguably more compliant if used legally.
Getting a feed of the lighting cable might be more trouble than its worth though.
>they could do you for something like non payment
By... Writing your number plate down you mean?
Good luck with getting Emma onboard with this one Neil!😂
Change the plate for Emma
BABE 08RD
Absolutely love it. It’s about time these thieving car parks and service stations had some payback. We got an ‘invoice’ a few years ago for stopping and sleeping at clacket lane services and not paying. Tbh, it was bloody late and we didn’t see the signs. Needless to say, when it arrived we filed it under B1N.
Really love this as its ideal for motorhomers traveling around the country ghost parking, where do you buy this wonderful item.
If you get a INVOICE (as that's there real name ) just contact the sender and tell them you was not driving the vehicle at the time then they will ask who was you say I dont know you have to find out yourself . As they have NO LEGAL powers for you to tell them only the police judges an councils have the power of authority that you have to tell them . I have done this about 4 times now if you ignore them they will pester you but tell them you dont know who driving they leave you alone
Was late, or didnt see the signs are just excuses mate
@@vlratcliffe1 thats only for private park companies not the council. The council ones you have to tell them
How would this even work? Most ANPR parking areas are used in conjunction with barriers.
I think the problem here is. Shopping centre car parks. Because they're classed as a public place during operating hours, road traffic rules apply. For example its still illegal to use your phone while in asda car park driving around. So you couldn't flip them in a car park to dodge a car park fine
Any car park (or any private property) that has any lines or other road type markings (such as you see in multi storey car parks) are classed as the public highway, even though they are not dedicated highways or public highways, regardless of the fact they are actually private property. In short, if the car park has markings, UK highway laws applies. If the car park is gravel or grass, then UK highway laws do not apply.
Classic plate would be a Burger van with "ANY 14T" then flips to alternate of "OBO 110X" for an illusive get away.
Both remembered from the 80's era the "ANY 14T" actually being a number plate on a food van.
The other one was a visual joke in the VIZ comic.
Both follow the UK layout for the 80's era though.
And all classic criteria is met for being a Mediocre Dad joke. (or two).
:)
Lol, telling the paper to effoff tickled me 😂
So British 👌
Got to be done
Hmm not sure about this. You need to look at the Road Traffic Act and whilst I see your point about private land, the RTA has quite a wide definition of what public roads are.
i'm sure people have been done for DUI in carparks. But in theory there are grounds for a civil case as well.
Awesome, most innovative mod in ages Neil, love it! Could you put some edge trim around the cut out you made as it will most likely look like it was meant to be. I messed up cutting a hole in a plastic box and a bit of trim for a couple of quid and it looks great then (not that it looks too bad), hides a manner of sins when cutting. Must resist buying - think they would be great on campsites or at shows for a personalised reg, shame they don’t do 3 way swap ones which you could have one like yours, one for shows with your channel on it and the normal one. Again, Brilliant, All the best, David 👍
Re Car park comments. Any land the public is invited to drive onto i.e Tesco, ASDA etc the Road traffic act applies. So you must display number plates.
“ get a donut “ instead of “ fuck off “ 😂
Interesting security feature. If a toerag steals the van and the b-side is displayed, they will be pulled by plod
Now there is an idea, have one that displays 'STOLEN' if you don't operate a switch before you drive off?
@@colinxsd2208 Or f-*** plod
Love this 😂
😂😂
I need one!
top tip, put some salt along the top, next put some super glue onto the salt, it will never come off. Trust me on this, been doing it for years. Best of Luck.
Hahaha dude you're a fuckin legend. When them plates turned to fuck off I went into space. Brilliant
Okay assuming it's legal on the private car park (it probably isn't)
Wouldn't you need to flip the plates before you drove on to avoid the cameras?
It’s only illegal if your caught . I mean every single one of us had gone over the speed limit at some point so we all the same . Legal and illegal is just a word they use to control us
@@UrbanVanlife Is that what you are going to tell the magistrate when you are eventually booked for having this on your van
That is the best thing that ever seen on TH-cam you've got to get a million views well done.
Thanks Mart 🤗😊
Neil I love them imagine if someone was driving to close to you rear end all you have to do is switch plates, plus I love the bit about car parks , you are a genius 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣 the funniest license plate "@#$% off" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love it 😂. I think I got what was on the second plate😁. But a good one to put on second plate would be ON TOW that wouldn’t be so funny but might get a nasty copper of your back if spotted them.
Be aware that number plates that are attached with sticky tape are a prime target for having the plates stolen.. friend has had two cars where this has happened and it's a nightmare dealing with all the parking tickets etc that start arriving through the post.
Yer Iv screwed them on now . It won’t stop them but the bonus we have is . No crafter looks like ours but it’s a nightmare for cars
Police Control can put a flag on your reg plate, for extra checks to be done, as proberly clones have been made.
It helps a bit, as I had a car cloned.
So when you get the CPN ticket, on the defence appeal part put the Police reference number the police have you, that it was not you or your vehicle (cloned plate case).
Two screws take two seconds.
To protect yourself from a thief you Gotta think like a thief. If I was to steal a numberplate and clone the car. The owner would know the numberplates have been stolen and ring the police therefore put a tag on my plates showing that they have been stolen. Or don’t steal a numberplate and just copy it. The owner would never know until it’s too late.
And yes you can still easily copy a numberplate without personal information.
But hey I’m not a thief 😉
@@Cookie.x.monsterr If you get the police and DVLA to put a flag on your reg number, then you have a defence for any tickets or bilking etc claims you may get. Thats all you could do. Reg numbers are owned by DVLA and not the name on the V5.
Absolute class
Emma's response please
With pictures of you taking the beating 😅😂
Ideal high tech solution would be an LCD screen number plate that scrambles slightly upon approaching any camera...The scrambling could be done in a natural way, made to look like mud and leaves
Deadly go into the car parks and annoy them
In principle I love your scouse anarchism and I am inclined to do something like this!! If we are stuck in the UK sounds like a great idea!!
de do dow dont de dow
i notice your original no plate is reg in Inverness
That’s where she came from 💙
So you remind me so much of a Welsh fellow I used to know who is now deceased... but at 10:38 with the custom plate was the moment I realized "This is Dave's brother from another mother". :D
It’s called “intent”. If the police think your using them with intent you’ll get a bollocking too. Source: I did this a couple of years ago 😂
Punitive advantages

@@pqrstzxerty1296 the right to remain silent is beautiful. no words from your mouth at all, no charges. If you don't believe me? Walk into McDonald's and stay silent. See if anyone calls the police on you for refusal to pay for something which you did not order.
Like McDonald's, all driving offences are civil, licensing laws.
source? a retired solicitor.

@@vegvisirphotography5632 Yes 👍, but if you are caught red handed with an object then criminal law ie (cctv evidence), or in civil law proof of you accepted contract, then silence may and I said may go against you in the opinion of then Judge(s) and or Jury, as it maybe seen as no defence entered.
Yes 99.99% of FPN 's, CPN 's are all civil, except the one issued by a TRH Sec.of.State as Crown Proceeding Act applies.
My point is the Police keep telling the public its all a civil matter when you want police help. But when a business or organisation call out the police the police actually arrive then find out its a civil matter after squabbling.... wasting police time and the hasle of the member of the public , and a false claim been made by such business or organisation upon the memeber of the public due to an employee not knowing the law and juristictions of the law. GDPR seems a fashionalable know it all, shame these employees have never read the GDPR or DPA2018 papers on the subject, but waffle on myths and incorrect information. So does the police. DPA2018 does state the employer has to provide to all employees basic GDPR knowledge. It seems these employers are failing quality training. The Police should invoice their time to such business or organistations for false callout as its a civil matter not criminal and the police where called out of false information given by an employee. Fire and Rescue can charge for false callouts at their discretion so why not the police ?
A defendant has to prove nothing, a claimant (victim) has to prove everything that harm occured.
Clever! I would love one of those for the van when it's parked on camping trips. It seems that they're available for North American number plate sizes and single because the province doesn't issue front plates. Double bonus.
I love your show plate text. I once had a tag for my dog that said 'F*** off! I'm not lost.' The tag wasn't edited for TH-cam.
White Moss Carpark Lake District here we come 😂😂😂😂😂😂
“Neil : That looks shit” had me in stitches. First video I’ve seen but fair play , great vid
Thank you 🙏
There is a video floating about on youtube of a biker, down south in uk, who has a flip up rear number plate and uses it when passing speed cameras, unfortunatly he used it while there was an unmarked police car behind him ! ooooooooooops, yup he got done, unlucky... 🤣
Ohh have to have a look at that! But situations like that is when a problem occurs with the legal side of things, we wouldn’t use them on any main roads for exactly that reason ! Private land is different 😬😬
I've seen those flip plates and the police will pull you if they notice the mechanism.
My mate just sticks his foot back over the plate though haha 😄
Back in the '60's I got pulled by the police for having a mis read number plate, I was charged with fraud and fined and banned from driving. BE WARNED!
Think things have changed since then . Back in the 60s ppl didn’t have a say and the police ruled all . Now days you can really tackle things like that propperly
Just a couple of weeks ago I was looking in to these great video 👍
Thanks Gary, we do like a bit of something different here!
Great mod, but the highway laws surely apply to a car park that has public access. You can still be charged for drink driving in Tesco!
Also at what point would you switch it as you enter a car park - you'd likely have to switch them before you enter to avoid any ANPR cameras.
I know someone who got ran over on a zebra crossing in a supermarket carpark, police and ambulance responded, driver admitted fault and the the police didn't prosicute the driver as it was private land, the lady has had to take them to court herself for compensation as she had both ankle broke. The driver will end up paying bit won't get any conviction or points.
@@sorefinger4081
Being a car park wouldn't have made any difference. Unless careless driving could be proved, nothing the police could do anyway.
Hi. You made my morning.
Lovely accent and great presentation.
Cheers from London
Neil I f***in love you!! The moment you flipped that plate I just died from
😂😂😂 you legend 💪💪
11:25 I disagree.
It may be lawful to have them fitted.
But it is unlawful to use them
The police would thus proberly would or not get you on a non valid reg plate showing on a public area / road. Now upto nine points and £2700 fine ( new 2022 fine matrix update ).
But the police would proberly nick you for having a device that gives a " punitive advantages " which has no other use than to conceal if needed (and I said if) , and used to hide the reg plate to avoid detection. Upto 12 points and £4700 fine (new 2022 fine matrix update).
A speed laser lidar detection sensor is lawful to own, but not lawful to have one fitted in your vechicle. But a GPS database version is lawful to own and use. ie Google maps of fixed and non fixed camera, SPARC, SPECs. Just a laser lidar live sensor is not lawful to use, but lawful to own.
Basically, going tooled up, regardless if you going to use it or not.... also called in law " punitive advantages. "
So in all I would say the police would nick you on something in law if you used a flip plate.
Also note reg plates have to be the BSI type, else that be unlawful with a £1000 fine. And from 2022 BSI reg plates have to have printed on them who made them.
Show plates are unlawful so is non BSI fonts, and so it moving spacing of letters to make words, - three points and £1000 fine.
“Put the kettle on”

Fantastic gadget!
I’ve not even watched the video and I want them 👍😂👍
Ha ha love this 😂😂
Only criminals go to such lengths as mounting a clone flip plate to a vehicle...
Is James bind a criminal?
Only criminals? I had these for car shows which has nothing to do with criminality.
There is a war on the motorists he is just protecting himself 😂😂
Is this for the Runcorn bridge by any chance? 😅
Bad idea, there going to be clamping down on these systems,
ANNOYINGLY, from experience your far better of having your number plates on velcro, and removing them (completely) when needed as my plate have been stolen / or fell off
Etc, (slap on wrist) take of your plate when you drive into a car park and do the same when you drive out, (no parking fees). (if it has number plate reconition cameras)
Works every time at Fistral beach (Newquay) 😉
As you say, perfect for ANPR car parks! Brilliant 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Obviously have to test it now 😂😂
How is this going to save money?!
Carpark ANPR cameras don't care what it says on your reg, it's purely to identify it's the same vehicle that drove in x number of minutes ago.
You'd still have to pay.
@@johno4521 you not seen the previous video about the scam carparks then, which don’t give you time to buy a ticket. Up near lake Windermere.
@@johno4521 Flip it before driving in, simple
Avoiding parking fees in a private car park is IMO obtaining a pecuniary advance by deception….a criminal offence.
Good job we pay for parking then
Uk English, and American English is different. In the states we call them license plates.
Yer basically the same here we call them both
just brilliant!!!
When the old bill spot these, and they will, you will spend many happy hours at the road side as they make your life hell. Waiting for a specialist unit to arrive to inspect your van, getting a producer for an infraction. They will find something. Re MOT ing your van. Trying to contact them on the old / wrong email to lift the ban etc etc etc.
That’s will make for a good video
So you advocate using it in car parks to annoy anpr camera's , what a load of c*** more like to avoid paying for parking there are young people in this area using them to race along a main road and they flip the plate to stop anyone with a dashcam getting their number, they then pull into the Coral Reef and due to the anpr camera they do not flip the plate back until they park up in the employees car park section. There is no reasonable reason for using these plates, and you are making money by advertising them on You Tube.
Thanks for the comment and your opinion as everyone is entitled to that, however you don’t actually know us personally so to make assumptions that we just don’t pay for parking is ridiculous as we do pay for parking when we go to places, secondly do believe at the start of the video it was said that I don’t recommend anyone to do this and thirdly we aren’t young kids who race about or cause distress to other road users and wouldn’t use them on the main roads and clearly stated only on private land
There might be an awkward grey area where you're in a privately-owned car park with public access (e.g. supermarket, or anywhere without lockable gates). I vaguely remember you are legally required to have insurance, so number plates seem likely as well.
Abroad? Perhaps they are legal, as long as both sides have the same plate screwed on?
You popped up so gave a watch and then subbed. Very useful number plate tool there..... People forget that car park companies that charge are private companies and you don't have to deal with them if you choose not to. Same with the TV licence, even though they aren't private. No thank you, not today!
Choosing not to deal with them is choosing not to park on their property. If you park on their property, you are agreeing to their parking terms including penalty charges. A privately owned car park with public access is still subject to the RTA so you can’t legally use a device like this here. Anyone who tells you otherwise is talking bollocks.
@@spiderbootsy Since one is usually visiting to spend money it seems dimwitted / scammy to charge people for just being there.
No-one has satisfactorily explained how these would help you in a barriered, ANPR controlled car park...when you exit it has to be the same number you entered with, or you automatically get charged the default (maximum) amount....
I had a flip plate on my bike, got nicked for it a couple of times even though it wasn’t flipped at the time.
The cops told me if I got caught with it flipped it would be fraud. As it was they just nicked me for an irregular number plate.
It was a good laugh and I set off many speed cameras 😁
Love it As A James Bond nut. and living in Switzerland I have aquired the swiss plate from the triple revolving plate and have no plans to change my LU 6789 All my models have this registration plate ..P.s. Saving up for the Aston 🙂
I honestly laughed so hard at your number plate 🤣🤣 quality!!
Please be careful about using this. The Road Traffic Act applies not only to roads but also to public spaces to which the public have access.
This would include any private road or car park that is not gated. Case law holds that even a caravan site which had its gates open at the time was a public space and the driver convicted of numerous offences including no license and no insurance and dangerous driving. Being in a motorway service area is considered to be on the public highway. You may get away with some police officers not wishing to deal but certainly Traffic Officers (who are the ones likely to be on motorway services) will take a very dim view as they would suspect you may use it for speed cameras.
As an aside this would have landed you liable to arrest and criminal conviction 15 years ago when Sec25 of the Theft act was changed from Having articles for use in any burglary theft or cheat, to just burglary or theft.
Just wondering how long before you'll be drafted in to fitting one on Will's van..... can I suggest 'CALAMITY' as the alternate plate? 😂
Calamity 😂😂😂 love it 😊
Get it to switch automatically when you enter a Khan scam zone.
😂
Wow the back was alot of work...Great video
Yes the back took a lot longer than the front but got there in the end! 😂
I'm guessing this is to get out of paying when using a private car park? Or to stay as long as you like at McDonald's?! Most non-free carparks that use ANPR use it in conjunction with a ticket and barrier system. Most carparks also have CCTV and would see you entering...just seems like a LOT of bother and expense to go to. Private land or not you would be defrauding the parking company just the same as if you went into a shop with a fake credit card.
You'd have to leave it on the false reg all the time you were parked and away from the vehicle and risk someone reporting you especially if it is an offensive word.
I know of a certain car park in my area i would use them in as the scammy b*stards give me a ticket for £60 for being in there for 4 minutes
4 minutes? The local authorities give 10 minute grace period so if it’s privately owned tell them to go for a walk, if it’s council owned etc query it!
So when you park and have to enter your plate number, which side are you going to register? ;) Image the confusion that is going to happen when the auditors go through their parking reports!
Us try and confuse people? Never 😂😏😏
Hello to you both and the doggies hope your all ok sorry I haven't been in contact I have had a bad accident I have fallen and broke my leg in 4 places and had to have a operation now long process of healing for 6 months the doctors are saying 😥 but I'm all caught up with your vids and brilliant as always love the new plate switcher your now like the car from transporter where he switches the plates 😂 well you all take care all the best
A funny plate would be OK, but that's just offensive and shouldn't be for public viewing, I would certainly find it offensive and already see and hear it too often. But an ideal ploy on entering any private area or car park and preserve your anonymity.
And this is why Emma wasn’t impressed with the choice of number plate, I’m sure it will be getting changed at some point to something much more PG
@@UrbanVanlife You could put a plate on that says 'private' or simply a blank plate..... The camera operators would think that there's something wrong with their cameras ! lol .
@@Jayen4 why not just go the whole hog and put a false reg on?!
Thanks for sharing another great video, hope it does not flip over while driving by its self because we all know what Electronics are like especially cheap Chinese crap and good luck with Emma
Emma here ….. Neil may not be around for a few weeks 😉😉
@@UrbanVanlife get arrested? : )
Rolling pin or Doc Martins?
Size 4 stuck up his ass
That's terrible 😂😂 where do i get them, just asking for a friend
Link in the description 😬
@@UrbanVanlife thanks
WAIT HOLD UP A MINUTE, Are we not going to talk about you being in SHAWN OF THE DEAD?
😂😂😂
The Road Vehicles (Display of Registration Marks) Regulations 2001 required all non-exempt vehicles that are registered to display approved registration plates at all times and at all locations, public or private.
If you wish to use this device in a private car park or on private land then you need first to make a SWORN declaration to the DVLA, otherwise you would be committing an offence and could be prosecuted.
Oh dear this could put the thieving private car companies out of business if this catches on ! Right im off to buy a set !
My mum got fined picking up my brother from a pub and didnt actually park but because it was match day traffic it took 30 minutes to get out the car park so the scammers count that as parking
That’s a lot of time and effort just to avoid paying for parking charges? You could of course a. Not park there in the first place or b. Pay the required fee for parking on someone else’s property? Oh wait, you’re a scouser….🤣🤣🤣
neil when you meet up with dan and he wants something doing just flip the reg 🤣
Brilliant Neil pissing my self, I always wondered about doing this just to piss off Parking Eye and the other pirates of parking, great gadget.
The police in the UK can do you for failing to display a licence plate if when flipped it's not your number 🤦
Make sure it’s only flipped on private land . Problem solved
@@UrbanVanlife whats the point of that?
got a single kit for sale if anyone interested.bought for my old ford but doesnt fit so up for sale.never used
Hmmm....seems like my merc does need its plates fixing
Hahahaa it’s a winner
Other than even in car parks you’re still required to show your registration plates is this not just making your vehicle more nickable? All they have to do is flip your plates over so it’s not being tracked by ANPR. Would be interesting to get the insurance perspective on them.
