Orly?

Feel free to have a look at the DVLA website which allows public enquiries on information held by the DVLA.

None of this is private information, indeed there is no disclaimer or notice to this effect. Why? Because people can walk down the street and read number plates and makes of cars as they wish (or look at pictures of them on the net).

As they are used on public roads, the basic information is provided frely to the public.

If you want to try and lecture me about the data protection act or other legal issues surrounding data - feel free to go away and get a fucking clue about it first.

Obviously some people think this is all a bit of fun. Ill not bother posting this up in future, Ill just get them all reported to the DVLA instead. Lets see how funny it is when they come a calling for road tax evasion.
