[QUOTE=kiwifruit;1155608]My Dad is having a court case today, disputing a ticket he received.
"Number plate not mounted in proscribed fashion"

Will he win?
Will he loose?
Is it legal?

see attached photo of Dad's bike on the left below and Mum's on the right

I have seen an issue like this, a photo was produced with a warrated trailer with the same mounting position (ie Vertical). It appears to be common pratice and over looked on trailers so one could only asume...may be something in that... cool for the win

He won?
No surprise to me.
Shouldn't have got the ticket (I assume he was not a smart-arse that gave the cop shit when stop?) .

Dunno about that - but it WOULD make a big difference whether he got a ticket or not in the first place...sheesh.

exactly my point.. the police shouldn't be giving people tickets based on there attitude.. they're here to police the laws as defined by governments not our demeanour !
