    As Mrbadexample says, looks like a blatant misuse of his tradeplates.

    I had them years ago and you weren't even allowed to park the vehicle or drop the kids off a school even when enroute to a prebooked MOT.

    The Police only take an interest when they are not displayed atall. Using their disgression at most other times.

    Such as when a car program drove a car with them in the boot and got into all kinds of bother, I think the driver was knicked for driving without valid tax and the program paid the fine.

    There are many reasons why this is illegal.
    The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark
