    Britain's fake number plate crisis: How duplicitous drivers
    are buying £10 plates online to fool enforcement cameras
    into making millions of 'misreads' per day

    An expert warned there are a million 'misreads' a day due to
    the number plates

    . . .

    Umm ... GOOD.

    The effect is to thwart/confuse the Orwellian
    Total Surveillance scheme - one NOT really set
    up to "protect" citizens.
