Hide your license plate!

[ClassicVW_imp]

Aircraft registration numbers ("N" numbers on aircraft) are easily searched through the internet via the FAA registration center. Search N3578X and N787TM for example (my planes). When there is an aircraft in a movie or TV show, it's sometimes fun to do a search and see if it's a valid number.

A friend in law enforcement told me a number of years ago that a disconcerting number of plates displayed on vehicles are invalid (not current, don't match the vehicle description, etc.)

Time now to ride my CB.

All police agencies in my area that want one can get one or several automated license plate readers for their cruisers. It reads all plates- front, right, and left of the cruiser whether the plates are moving or parked. Big brother has arrived...
