We know your every move.

Unfortunately for the authorities, you don't - all you know is the movement of a number plate that matches mine to within the tolerances of the recognition system...

this has caused a great deal of fun & games with criminals using using false/stolen plates, people claiming they weren't driving when presented with a photo from a speed camera, etc, etc...

A side effect is that you now have to undergo something akin to the Spanish Inquisition if you just want a replacement number plate, or a spare plate for a trailer, etc...
As ever, it's the honest citizens who are inconvenienced, while the ne'er-do-wells just carry on regardless as before...
