ANPR and MOT

[Harold_Shand]

Just following on from another thread. Does ANPR bring up MOT details as well as road tax?

Harold_Shand's theory might be the best explanation.

I understand that it does... and you can throw the insurance database into the mix as well..

Plus any history of the vehicle being pulled in the past for any reason at all.

The UK ANPR system is intended to automatically alert police if a car is stolen, if road tax hasn't been paid or the MoT is out of date, or if the driver is uninsured. For good measure, it's supposed to check whether there is a warrant for the arrest of the driver, or whether the driver is for some reason under police surveillance.

It probably tells them what colour eyes you have and your inside leg measurement these days! In fact, everytime I get questioned by police it's the old "Any distinguishing features?" routine, even after they've seen my photocard licence. They know full well I have a foot long scar accross my stomach, so I always say no just to piss them off.

I recently had a new passport, and it has a chip in the back page. I read the bumff that came with it and it says it's a "tracking chip", and that I should keep it away from magnetic fields! Just thought I'd share that with you.

So what happens if hmm.... a badger steals my passport and brings it into its super magnetic underground layer, and then returns it the next day without me ever realising?

Presumably the chip messes up and they can no longer track me, right?

RFID is short range,

just wrap your passport in a faraday cage wallet and nothing will be able to scan it,

in HK they have an octopus card (the London Oyster card but this came in around 1995) I have a RFID proof wallet, and it would never scan , so I had to take it out to use it.

for once foil wrapping WILL work.
