There is no reason on earth for him to provide his reg.no.[/QUOTE]
I reported an incident of dangerous driving and was asked for my reg no. They will ask for as much info as possible and see what they get away with.0 -

Yes, and it's pretty off-putting, I must admit. I once reported an old man with a firearm in woodland. You wouldn't believe the amount of detail they wanted about ME! Never again.
