Leaving your number plate clearly visible while performing stunts on a video posted on YouTube is fairly stupid these days. As the authorities only need to run the number plate through the system and the owner’s details become available.
But this is exactly what one Australian driver has done and he has not only been traced by the police in the area where the stunts were performed, but has embarrassingly become the butt for many comments from users of YouTube who feel that he should have covered the number plate or even used some spray which makes the number plate unreadable by cameras.
YouTube users had a fair amount to say about the video:
``Take da plates off or at least blur it out . . . still laughing on how f----- dumb u can get,"
``Anybody who has half a brain would cover up their number plates and not blurt out where it was taken,'' the user wrote.
``Yes, I have and still do that s---, but I'm not stupid enough to a. film it and b. have my face and plates for all the cops too see.''
``Shut ya f----- mouth u dumb c---s you r not talking to the owner this is not his account and he has paid his rego so f--- up!''
``We all make mistakes and u all no it was a good drift and if u think ur better then f----- show me instead of talken urself up. NOT A P PLATER!''
Spokesman from the local police dept, Sen Sgt Shane Coles, had these comments to make:
``I think it is terrible. Anything could have happened while they were doing that.''
``There's a few offences there, from crossing double lines to dangerous driving,''
Of course naturally driving like this is not recommended as well as posting your exploits on a popular website that is used by millions of people.
