Funny ,I just heard about a guy who had a personal plate made that read "NONE" thinking it would just mess up the System . What it did was get him 12000 parking tickets . Be careful what you wish for. Any way ,what is the difference if your car is parked on the street or driving down the Freeway or parked at the grocery store . I think the people who worry about it are the same people who lock their front door when they are outside gardening and they keep their glove box locked . Big deal if people want to want to find out where you . Go by this motto and life will be better "Be nice to your neighbors ,they know where you live .
