    Knew a guy who had the license plate ‘NULL’ and he was telling me how he never got a toll bill or red light ticket.

      The article talks about a guy with a “NULL” license plate who gets tons of tickets for things he didn’t do so probably not the best plan

        Yep. For the curious, any time a license plate photo couldn’t be fully read by the automated system, it was marked as “NULL” and he was flagged as the driver. So every single red light camera and speeding camera in the area was sending him to court every day.

          It got worse than this, the ticketing company really wanted to get the money from him so when he got hold of a copy of the records and pointed out that one ticket was for a completely different car they modified the records on their end to change the make of car so it would match his. iirc he only got out of it because he had paper copies.

            Isn’t that falsifying legal documents? In many countries that would land you in jail? Am I wrong, did the people really run that risk?

            Don’t they have to prove it with a photograph? In GermanyI’d laugh in theirface withput a photograph as evidence.

              Hey AI can you swap this 2015 corolla with a green 2019 Mazda 2.

              Keep the license plate the same!

              And remember THERE ARE FOUR PASSENGER DOORS NOT 6
