Number Plate spacing

The other thing they will pull you on is if the screew covers are not the same colour as the part of the number plate it is covering i.e. using a black cover on the yellow part of the plate. People do this to change numbers/letters to something different. Saw one the other day that had used a yellow screw cover to make an 8 look like a 0 by putting the screw threw the centre line on the 8.

Without a picture of the actual number plate, it's impossible for anyone here to be tell if it's legal or not."You were only supposed to blow the bl**dy doors off!!"0

The question wasn't whether its legal or not....!!!
The question was what can I do to appeal as I know it IS legal. Have even asked another policeman if he can see anything wrong with them and he couldn't.0 -

Could it be that most answers so far are answering......I don't understand what the issue is...?The question was what can I do to appeal as I know it IS legal. Have even asked another policeman if he can see anything wrong with them and he couldn't.
Do not pay any fixed penalty.
Go to court, plead not guilty, and as the plate is legal, watch the case get thown out.
p.s. this other policeman you asked, didn't you think to ask him what you could do about it?0
