    From what I can tell, the first reads "Murder", the second "Neglect" and the third I presume is meant to read "No Mum" - but I suppose the politically correct snowflakes can get incredibly upset by reading a cars number plate, therefore these examples aren't allowed.

    Besides, ... motorists ought to be paying proper care and attention to their ... rather than, say, getting unduly steamed up [or even paranoid] over such relatively minor trivialities as the car in front's registration number ... in order to help create safer conditions for - and minimise serious accidents among - other road users.
