On a slightly different point. I remember an internal notice to the Met Police some years ago, which referred to the idea of a `personalised number' as being 'childish or foolish' and for that reason discretion should be exercised.

Quite funny as for time the official car of the Commissioner of the Met had a personalised number.
There is now a glut of idiots using incorrect fonts, spacing, screw heads etc in blatant disregard of The Road Vehicles (Display of Registration Marks) Regulations 2001 which the Police seem to be unwilling to enforce. If the offenders choose to disregard these rules how many others do they ignore. I'd like to see a zero tolerance policy introduced.
