Just curious why do people blur out their license plates in pics? Is it bad to have your plate showing? why?

 

some people are scared lol... if someone is gonna track you down they can do it with out the plate lol...

 

yeah i never understood that either, if you think about it, how many people see it every day while youre driving?

 

My truck isnt registered in my name right now so.....


I don't have a problem with my plate visible in pics. Like already mentioned, everyone on the road sees it every day, so what's the difference?

I also find it funny when someone posts a bunch of pics of their vehicle in the same thread and some pics the plate is blurred and others they aren't.

 

I have wondered that for a while. Its not like your SSN is posted on the front of your truck. LOL

 

it just some extra security, since the everyone can see your plates when you drive I don't really see what it does. BTW twice I've had people pull my plate number out of a parking lot and said I hit them. The first was really funny because at the time the guy said I hit him the car wasn't even in the country and I had the border crossing sheet to prove it. I do wonder if he got charges out of that one. The second one I immediately took the car to autopac and the adjuster agreed for the damage on the womans car there was no way it came from our car.

 

I don't do it on my own plate, but If a family's car is in the pic, I blank their plate.

 

Wait a minute! People see my license plate when I'm driving? CRAP!

 

Well if someone wants to get on here and say hey that's a nice truck

Most people have where they live listed in the top right. All they would have to do is go to that city and search for the truck without a plate number

There is only 1 05 Red edge in Springfield Mo with black dc-1's so

 

So when I get pulled over tomorrow for driving around with carboard over my plates, will the officer accept the excuse that I don't want people stealing my personal information?

 

Just because you can find out a lot of information through a license plate.

 

like what? name, address, vehicle make and model? we have most of that info on our profiles here.

 

It's for security purposes. There's a lot of nut cases with bad attitudes on the internet. I've even seen a few here on this forum, so why tell the nutcases where you live ??

 

well Wayne K from Ohio, why don't you answer that question for us? lol

 

Ohio is a big state, have fun tracking me down !! hahahaha

 

I know where you live just by whats in your profile. you have your state listed and zip code.


Ill be picking up your truck Tuesday at 4am

 

i challange someone on here to find out where i live from my licence plate number lol

 

Is that a dealer plate?

 

yeah

 

Oh I will. Just give me 3-4 weeks and $150 dollars. haha

 

I have an aunt who lives in Muskegon, I'll have her stop over to see you...hahahaha

 

Don't bother, I won't be home.

Man you guys are good at stalking !! Hahahaha !!

 

Going by your zip code and a quick Google search narrows it down to the Lexington area.

 

Just a joke I have no desire to go back to Ohio

been there done that not doing it again

 

come on over ill have a beer with ya if you can find it lol
