The lady I spoke to was a bit vague about how legible the plate was. She did try an "alternative reading" but that didn't come back as a black s2k either.
I think its all part of the current authorities' policy of getting the public to do all their work for them. Like I said to the VAT man the other day on the subject of on-line filing, "not only do you get the general public to collect your taxes for you, now you even get us to process the paperwork!". I hope he had a sense of humour...

A R n' R client of mine used to have an expression "I don't mind you f ucking me over, but you have to kiss me first!"
He used to offend banks, authorities, etc with it. It was bloody brilliant!

So are we saying that we expect the rozzers to verify the details of every clocked speeder before sending a NIP on the basis that it "might" be a cloned plate.....?
So, yes, frankly.

There should certainly be a check to see if the description of the car matches that which the plate is registered to. Then a human gets involved.
