AD - DO YOU KNOW THE LAWS AROUND NUMBER PLATES?
Having a number plate on your car is a legal requirement, and most people are aware of this, but the law is actually a little more specific than just having a number plate. This is where a lot of confusion can arise, and it helps to understand the law surrounding number plates entirely. There is a tendency to want to change the actual plate to match upgrades to the car, but before you order something, there are considerations.
