DVLA survey on number plate system - fit for pupose?

[Brigadier]

I can see that the govt are trying to clamp down on "ringing", but let's face it...the criminals will have their own supply, it's only Joe Public who's going to have to pay high street prices cos he doesn't want to send his V5 away in the post to a supplier. Joe Criminal will find a way.

Exactly, Alan - all of these measures merely inconvenience and cause cost to, the law-abiding motorist. Any decent criminal worth their salt will have a ready supply
