Re: Edit your license plates

Come on y'all! I know Mike is gone for the day, but that doesn't mean you have to start acting like kids! Actually, y'all weren't acting like kids...I've never heard kids come up with good comebacks like that. Usually it's something like "You smell!".

LOL. I have no idea what your plate means. I assumed you were referring to kilometers per hour at first then once I thought about it I realized that's way too fast. Even after you gave a hint, I still don't understand it.

Is it a Mach 1? Even if so, I still don't understand why it says 1225 KPH.

And, Chuck Yeager flew the Bell X1 when he broke Mach1 in 1947.

This is a larger deal in ICE (In Car Entertainment) Forums, but not limited to. Theres several large cities in the US and some people are very good at tracking down certain neighborhoods. All someone would need is a picture with a street sign, or an address, or a landmark that would give the criminal some insight to the location of the car, then the theif can know exactly whats inside the car, and how to steal it.

Or, the criminal could find me and my Wyoming travel kit in the car.... (Gotta love open carry laws.)

It's easier if you watch "It Takes a Thief" on Discovery Chanel. Not only do you get to see all the stuff you can steal from inside the house, but you learn how many people are in the house, something about their habits and work schedules and most importantly a detailed overview of their newly installed security system!

Re: Edit your license plates

When you drive down the street or park in a parking lot or whatever, hundreds upon hundreds of people can see your license plate, too. If I don't "edit" my plates out then, why would I do it online?

The only time I could see it wouldn't be good is if you posted pictures or video of yourself doing illegal activities (like street racing). Otherwise... yeah... I'm sure if someone really wanted to find out where I live they could, regardless of my plates. Plus, ha, my car has plates from a state 2000 miles away from where I actually live, and my car is registered to a PO Box.

I think in many states this is not legal. I know in Washington State it's not legal. Many people who live in Vancouver(just across the river from Portland) try to license their vehicles in Oregon to avoid paying the expensive registration renewal fees.

Re: Edit your license plates

I always blur out all of my customers' plates, vital information can be obtained from sourcing the plate number. I have heard of thieves locating a specific vehicle and taking it from the owner's own garage many times. It's small precautions like this that shows your customers you care about their well-being as much as you care about their car.

Except for my Mustang, I don't blur that out....

If you want it come get it....but you'll have to catch it first.

Easy explanation.. I moved, but kept my car there in storage. I am still a legal resident of that state, and so is my mom, who is also on the registration. WY allows you to register to a PO Box since it's well... in the middle of nowhere and not everyone has physical addressses. So everything is perfectly legal.

If you're in New Jersey with a car registered in Wyoming, you have a problem. New Jersey requires persons entering the state with the intention of stayingh six months or more to not only register the car they operate in New Jersey within sixty days, but require the driver to obtain a New Jersey driver's license.

According to WDOT, the State of Wyoming will provide registration information fot $5.00 for "business" purposes. Once your license plate number is obtained, it would be a simple matter to go to the County Assessor's Office and look up property ownership by name. You can even buy a list of all property owners in the county on CD.

Match up the name on the registration with the name on the title to the property and knock on the door.

"Hello, Mom? How's your son doing in New Jersey?"

Of course, it may be a little tougher if Mom rents an apartment.
