Chesterfield Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 It all sounds to me like the ANPR system is a bit crap. So rather than do the screamingly obvious and improve the character recognition on the ANPR system (crikey even adobe can read handwriting). They go the long winded way round and try to alter all the number plates that cant be read by it. Hows about we spend some of that £15 million left over from the speeding fines in upgrading the ANPR system, so that coppers can then spend more time doing what they probably enjoy doing, detecting, preventing and resolving "real" crime. The answer is of course that like most public bodies they would get crap value for money, not bother questioning it, and the quote for tweaking the ANPR system would probably run to well over the £15 million. Whereas I can buy a copy of adobe that can read even my squiggly handwriting for less than a couple of hundred quid down at PC world. The mind boggles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacko Posted July 4, 2007 Author Share Posted July 4, 2007 unlucky mate but I did warn you Yeah I know, I knew the risk myself when my other plate cracked....... it just makes me laugh when I see some of the really bad scripts and very offensively spaced plates around! Thats why I kept it simple and not offensively taking the mick....... Anyway, no one likes a smart arse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went home early and crashed my car in the car park with all my friends watching It could have been worse as I had been in court 6 months earlier for careless driving and the sheriff told me that if I was up again I would get banned (somehow got away with 3pts and fine). This accident was once again careless driving but I managed to deflect attention from myself onto the driver of the van I hit as he had just been told on the phone by his boss that he wasn't insured to drive the van. It was my civic duty to inform the police officer of this fact Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
