What's so secret about your license plate? You drive around with it uncovered every time you're in your car! It's not a social security number for the love of God. End of venting...  |
But, at the same time it is.
Now on the open road you really do not have people sitting down writing plates down tracking people. On the internet you have lots of people with free time and nothing better to do than hurt others. They see a nice car (take 2theextremes), and figure he has some money. Take his plate and you can quickly gather some information about where he lives, driving record, etc. It is better to be cautious, you never know who you can truly trust.
