Turning the screws on crime
Stolen registration plates are used to disguise a vehicle in order to commit crimes and are also used on unregistered vehicles to make it appear as if the vehicle is registered. Regularly check your vehicle to see that both plates are still in place. If they have been stolen, report the theft promptly to local police.Having your number plates stolen not only costs you money but there is also the inconvenience of having to arrange to have the plates replaced.
Why not consider having one-way screws fitted to your vehicle in order to make it more secure and difficult for your number plates to be removed by thieves. Crime prevention is everyone’s responsibility and by taking advantage of this free service you can help police ‘turn the screws on crime’.
