Personally Yours Registrations offer free number plate information

Staffordshire, UK. 15th June 2008. For twenty years Personally Yours Private Car
Registrations have been selling private number plates, but that is not all! In order
to offer a complete service Personally Yours Registrations are offering information
which is helpful to number plate buyers.

The law regarding number plates changes occasionally but there are some rules which
although may seem trivial can lead to the vehicle that the number plate is on being
pulled over by the police and if it is found to be illegal a fine can be issued. It
makes no difference if the number was already on the vehicle either.

To make sure that customers of Personally Yours Registrations stay in touch with
number plate rules, they have a guide to the legalities of number plates and the
fitting of them.

The Managing Director of Personallyyours.co.uk, Jason Wilkes said: \"All number
plates including numbers those purchased through sales scheme must be displayed in
accordance with The Road Vehicles (Display of Registration Marks) Regulations 2001
(obtainable from Her Majesty\'s Stationery Office).

Rules for the display of number plates are set out in law, briefly these are: -

A number plate must be displayed at the front and rear of motor vehicles (with some
exceptions).
Number Plates must be easy to read and meet the British Standard.
Lettering should be black on a white plate at the front and a yellow at the rear.
The background surface should be reflex-reflecting but the characters must not.
There are separate requirements for traditional number plates displayed on vehicles
constructed before 1 January 1973.
Lettering and spacing must be of a set size. They must conform to one of the groups
shown at:- Number plates fitted after 1 September 2001 or Number plates fitted
before 1 September 2001.\"

He went on to say: \"Number Plate Law - The law states that, you must not alter,
rearrange or misrepresent the letters or numbers and characters must not be moved
from one group to the other (e.g. A242 ABC must not be displayed as A242A BC).

Offences may result in any or all of the following:

A fine of up to £1,000
The registration mark may be WITHDRAWN
The vehicle may FAIL the MOT test

Full details of the requirements are included in The Road Vehicles (Display of
Registration Marks) Regulations 2001\"

It pays to stay ahead of the rules, and personallyyours.co.uk is helping their
customers do just that by providing useful information on their website.
