Has anyone seen these in public before?
Not here in the U.K.
As it's illegal to tamper with license plates.
@@traykey its illegal but typically itl take months before a cop finally notices and decides to pull u over. Even then its only a small fine compares to the toll fees thats nothing
@@illuminatedperspectives2894
Wouldn't get pulled by police.
We have ANPR here, automatic number plate recognition.
Fines are sent direct through the post and they are high lol
@@traykey im talking about if a cop notices the film on your plate and pulls you over.
@@illuminatedperspectives2894
Oh, I see.
My bad, I misread you.
Sorry matey 👍
Please keep working on this. If you figure out one that is undetectable in person, but blocks the cameras, that would be gold.
the ir version works but only at night
@@liamharwell5107 there a video or link to that one?
All you half to do is rub a banana across the plate numbers and letters then take your cell phone up to it and all with the camera on and all of it will be a pure white tag showing nothing but a plate
@@yrmyahu8 bruh what
@@yrmyahu8 proof?
Cameras that ticket you should be illegal. You have a right to face your accuser. You cannot question a random notice they send in the mail based on a camera.
A few months ago, a friend of mine discovered that he had two unpaid fines for speeding that he didn't even know about. They said that one of these cameras captured him speeding twice, and he was barred from getting new tags until he paid the state of Georgia $200. Because they neglected to update his address on their system, they never got around to notifying him. That, in my opinion, is bullshit.
@@SniffHeinkel Owing the state $200 is also probably enough for him to fail the background check to purchase a firearm.
I’ve always heard you didn’t have to pay those tickets. My mom got one for running a red light but clear as day at the bottom of the ticket it said failure to pay this will not negatively affect your credit or go against your driving record. She didn’t pay it. And hasn’t got anything from the dmv and her license is still valid. It’s been over three years. I also have several friends that have done the same thing. 🤷♀️
It’s just most people think they have to pay it so they do. I’m in Tennessee that’s the way it is here.
I watched a video recently about a city that ticketed someone for speeding and the photo showed their car on a towtruck. They tried to challenge it, but there was no way to do so. They were told they just had to pay.
You just saved me about $30,000 a year in tolls 😘😀👍
Right!! 😂😂😂
Lmfao but isnt illegal to do that ?
I just paid 50$ tolls from san fransisco 🥴 which i should have bought the yummy ice cream instead of that stupid toll for nothing
It doesn't work for the tolls but it works for red light cameras and certainly would not work for radar
Be careful, if you are caught with that on your car, they will send you through the wringer
You most live in Sydney, Australia 🇦🇺
I have always added an inch wedge of plastic or wood behing the top of my lic plate . It tilts the plate down , bouncing the radar signal down, instead of back to the device. Does NOT "deface" or obstruct the plate!
How does it work?
@@hamadalhamed1727
The original idea was for radar & later lazer protection. They normally would target your headlights or your highly reflective license plate.
. The tilted plate bounces the return signal into the ground. Up close its likely less effective. While
Todays cameras are much better, but mounted up high. It should reduce their effective picture.
I have only been challenged 1x 12 yrs ago by a young cop. .ie claimed I defaced/ obscured my plates. I pointed out he could clearly see my numbers. Which he agree to!
I have had zero tickets ever since. So, not breaking any laws & ticket free for a long time. Two 2" long screws a piece of wood I had, white painted. I can only hope it helps with the car mounted license plate readers used nowdays.
can you show how thats done?
@@imtalkingbusiness
I used a 12" x 3/4" thick white plastic board. The width was 1.5". I cut a 30° angle on its face. Drilled holes thru & had to buy 21/4" bolts to reach the car.
Great idea! One of those “Why didn’t I think of that?” ideas.
I needed this for Illinois' extortion roa-- I mean, toll roads! :)
You realize the toll roads in Illinois don’t receive taxpayer dollars? They’re entirely paid for by the tolls.
@@joejonas3684 Don't take that comment seriously. It was satire.
Super illegal in Cali. Still, a better idea would be completely cover the plate in retroreflective glass spheres so any camera flash or headlight would simply overwhelm the camera sensor. This would also work against IR illuminators commonly used in ALPRs.
What is that can u detail for us?
@@masterberkantIt's the reflective thing on roads. They also sell that on spray cans.
@@curlyhairdudeifywasn’t the reflective spray featured on Mythbusters , fyi Busted
I just removed mine in Ca. No more tolls. Only been stopped once in over 2 years. Just a fix it ticket. No fine
Defeats the purpose of road safety doesn't it?
So the police are wasting tax payers money on radar speed cameras?
And *it's OK* to exceed the posted speed limit? and rick killing someone? That is the faster you go the longer it takes to stop -*FACT!*
"Can you read his plate number?"
"Just look for the car with the four faux rocket engines on it"
Facts 😂😂😂😂 no need for license plate. That’s like the vin # of the vehicle ?!!!!!
You're hilarious. You can barely see the plate with those monsters on there. He has to have at least one friend who will tell him how ridiculous that looks. Can you imagine the time and money? If I ever do anything that stupid, please tell me!
@@floridaredneckyes save all your money and hide underground. do not enjoy the things you love to do at all
@@PardonYou Why would I take that advice? I love going out and enjoying the crowd. I just don't want to embarrass myself.
Definitely need something with more coverage. The roaches can potentially get a match from a partial number + car make + model. If there are any distinguishing features on your car, that will also help with a match.
well said
Debagged sleeper cars😈
Yeah. Even if this was a Taurus in the 90s, you don't need more than a partial from that plate to narrow it down in no time. You're better off with someone else's plates. But I didn't say that. :D
Doesn't matter, never testify against yourself, and never agree to pay anything unless they have 100% proof. It's easy, but most people are afraid to fight tickets. You don't need to go to court, you do it all on paper.
Since camera tickets are civil fines they are pretty limited with what they can use to ID you, so blocking a character or 2 is more than enough. If they were using the footage to solve a murder or bank robbery thats a different story.
I can’t even figure how to take off the plastic cover on my license plate lol, this is dope.
Thanks for making this informative and helpful video
@charlieryan1736 I like that it's 'educational'. 😁
In a lot of states even a clear plastic cover over your license plate is illegal and you can get pulled over for it edit a lot of people that try to hide their license plates are doing it to avoid paying tolls
lol what the point in this? ppl only using this plastic plate to hide their plate numbers to avoid speeding tickets from cameras. just drive slow. and besides most crooks use stolen cars, fake temporary plate stickers , or no plates at all😂 you either drive right or without plates at all
i’m pretty sure if someone has description of your car color and brand .. plates might not even matter. don’t expect an indictment but then again do you really think any crook would pull over ? they just drive a hellcat
you know there are dirty cops in all states? i’ve seen hidden cop cars near banks, dmv, libraries, and post offices trying to pull ppl over or give them a parking ticket at the meter, i never park next to any of these buildings since they sometimes have a no u-turn sign. i park in some neighborhood then walk to post office . usually if the post office is in a cramped area you have to pay for parking. sometimes it’s not. i never park at meters or small one way slanted parking lots. parking should always be free. besides walking never hurt, we just get too lazy sometimes to even walk.
Beyond lame
In Minnesota it's illegal. Our mechanic started putting clear covers over the front plates of our trucks since MN plates are no longer stamped, but rather have a printed vinyl stuck on them (which eventually starts to peel). Cop ticketed one of our drivers for it.
"Educational purposes" my actions say otherwise 😂
Us as a while here in Michigan have done a good job at petitioning and voting down speed cameras twice so far. Once he can’t fight it anymore here is what I’ll be doing. 👍
Well, they have Camerata every intersection I've been at recently in Michigan. Regardless if it's for speeding or not, they have them up.
need something like this you can turn on and off , as the dirty pigs will easily notice it when they are stalking you !
Maybe a cutout of it the size of your plate and have a similar setup with the flip plate wire relay etc but instead this slides over your existing plate and can maybe be held on by some strong neodymium magnets to withstand the wind draft then of course the string or whatever you want to use for the pulling action probably some thin metal wire
@@ahahaa1602 great idea ...but i dont like the flip plate because it is way too slow , you need something quicker then the eye , cheers
i have something just like what you're suggesting :)
@@MakeItHackin busting to see it , cheers mate
@@ahahaa1602 what’s it called??
I find it a lot easier to take the license plate off for when it’s required
Bro are you DOM?
@@Richard_375 your so lovely 🥰
"But remember, don't actually drive around with one of these on your car." BWAHAHAHA! Sounds like a pharmaceutical ad on TV saying "Don't take Wegovy if you are allergic to any of the ingredients." I love it.
The frenel piece will turn yellow due to uv light over time. I used one in Yuma AZ on my bike and it turned a ugly yellow real fast. It depends on how much sunlight it gets obviously but parking your vehicle when your at work for 3 months or so of time turned mine yellow. I even tried to park facing away from the sun as well.
What color did yours turn again? Blue you say?
Incredible, I learned a lot from this educational video!
We have red light cameras but they are wise to this - the camera that takes your tag pic is positioned so you are straight ahead of it instead of at the steep angle you showed. You know someone is nabbed when you see the flash go off. I'm surprised they don't use speed vans around here.
what are those flower vented buckets on your trunk for?
Use a hitch cargo rack with a cooler strapped on it. 😊
Ahh... the Reese hitch receiver with a carrier in it!
Got pulled over late at night in Western New York as a DWI test and his excuse for pulling me over was because I had a clear cover protecting my vanity plate. Was told just a clear cover is illegal in NY.
Alternatively you could get polarized plastic. Often it's used to put on two computer screens so that people who are left or right of you cannot see the screen. In this case turn it 90 degrees so it's up and down. I'm pretty certain that Amazon sell it by the roll
There is a relative video about this.
@@Grenadieros link?
@@Grenadieros I too am curious what this video is..
@@kingvegeta5695 : I put the link but was removed.
@ : I posted the link but was removed, check for laptop privacy film, from an angle you can not se the screen thus in a licence plate you can not read correctly the numbers.
You will get a ticket for using this.
And getting caught with this on your car is illegal.
With police now on the lookout for these, one would need a really sneakily-designed visual 'stealth' one to get away with it. If it only covers part of the plate (i.e., the lettering segment), then shading/color contrast with the rest of the plate will give it away, as would any visual lettering distortion from looking at the plate at a ground-level side angle. And at night, there would need to be no unusual extra reflectivity from headlights behind one's vehicle.
I assume that the only way to get caught with this, is if you're minding in your own business and a cop stops behind you at traffic lights and notices this. Otherwise, how will a cop know?
If your car has the physical space around the area your tags are mounted, you might be able to make a motorized version of it that moves into place as you approach a toll gate. Then retracts itself after you've cleared the gate.
But you didn't hear that from me 🤫 ;)
What is up with one's word are you a monk?????
Some places they use multiple cameras at different angles, so they would still get the entire plate. Also, illegal in many states.
Got pulled over doing this, don’t do it
How do you keep those buckets attached?
If a cop notices that, and they will, you're getting pulled over to say the least.
LOLz yous'Just'Gotta-luv those "...for educational purposes only..." kinda informative videos...🤣
I think that the plate number can be read , especially by those who operate those cameras, especially with today's technology
Doing so in Spain and getting catched by a traffic cop (who could easily notice just by looking at the plate and moving a bit around) means a 6,000€ ticket, 6 license points (out of a maximum possible 15 points) and car impounding for illegal license plate alteration.
Not a very good advice here.
Obviously socialist nations have exceptions lol
Spain is a crappy country for that.
We all know Spain is a fascist state and always has been. The piece of garbage Franco ,who loved and praised Hitler and despised the Jews, held on to power until the mid seventies and Spain hasn't changed one little bit up until now. Spain still treats its citizens like dirt.
Now add them all together into the ultimate licenceplate blocker
I’m really confused. Here in Virginia, you are not required to pay any of the tickets from a red light camera. It even states at the bottom of the ticket. Failure to pay this fine will not negatively affect your credit or driving history. I know several people that have got them, never paid and nothing happened. If you ever get one of course read the fine print or check out the laws in your area.
edit:I’d say it’s probably different in different states. So check your state laws.
Are the available for UK car reg plates ?
Need it for all these license plate scanners
Here in Alberta people simply use rear mounted bicycle hangers to obliterate the license plate and seem to get away with it, and the stupid thing is that in Alberta only one rear plate is required!
I'm all for beating these speed cameras theoretically. it's not fair to collect revenue when a state employee isn't even there. also, there are some shenanigans the transportation department is trying to pull that I think should be countered in the most civilly disobedient manner possible... in theory of course
@@khronin LMAO thanks for the laugh, hope you weren’t serious bud
@@khronin after further reviewing your channel and seeing you are a full grown adult it saddens me to see the school system failed you so badly
Unless you live in the 14 states where it is legal
But if you are in most of the US and a cop sees that you are getting a ticket
Maybe you should use google for once and don’t blindly trust the first random blog that pops up
And “only getting 1 ticket” doesn’t mean it’s not illegal and you will never get a ticket
Just means that no one has bothered to issue you one yet
@@khronin but have fun with the conspiracy theories my dude it’s always funny
@@The.dudeinator You sound like a government troll.
@Dude you obviously dont know your rights, also you apparently dont know how to talk to get out of a ticket. So yeah go head lick the boots, till one day you're gonna get kicked. Government is a disease, I dont care what law/opinion they make, it's not above my rights.
After my third speeding ticket I definitely need one.
Sick of the government taking food out my family's mouth.
Have you considered not speeding?
I wouldn't really call 4 ks over the speed limit is speeding.
That's just pushing out revenue right there.
@@xtrongarage9666 damn which country do you live in
GotYaLoot
I'm in Australia.
@@gotyaloot2125 Canada is just as bad. 10kms or over gets you a photo ticket at just about every traffic light intersection now.
Hide your plate from the cameras, get a massive ticket for your illegal plate cover if you ever get pulled over.
FYI those cameras are designed to take photos at specific angles..if plate is angled both front and rear ...no photo....and still legal should a patrol unit sees you some will cite you for covers it's considered obscured vision. City of Carson calif does this as well as rims on vehicles if not stock
In Florida they impound your car and a 30 day hold
Does anyone know what's the stripe he used called ?
Speed scams are liers because they give speeding tickets to people that's not truly speeding, the trickery is setting the speed limit to low for the road.
Greed, Corruption!
can u try using a reflective spray and testing it please
Wait so dumb question lol. With the naked eye you would be able to see it normal as if noting were there? And also how would this do at night with headlights? Would it bounce back and look kinda funny or all normal?
I feel like if you get pulled over and a cop walks around your car he’ll definitely see it from that angle.
To the point of how to make it better add explosive bolts to the license plate holder so that you can release it if you're going to get pulled over by the police just for testing purposes.
LMAO. that would be a great video
Hahaha that's awesome! You need to patent that idea and then sell me your first set..... but only after they've been tested! 😂
@@MakeItHackindid you do it?
Another thing that works really well is to just slow down or not try to beat a red.
Whats the name of the material
What about a hinge hidden behind the plate at the bottom and a hidden pull cable like off a bicycle brake going to the drivers position. Pull when required then return. Plate flips down, can't be read. Then flip it back.
What’s the charge and fine for getting caught with that on your license?
WHAT LENSE ?
There's this super-reflective spray-on stuff that is completely clear until it's hit with direct light, such as sunlight or a camera flash. You can also turn on your headlights and let your license plate lights shine on it.
where do i get it from?
@@trinityt I'm not sure. I have seen online somewhere. It comes in a spray can. I have driven behind someone that had it on their plate. When not in direct light you can see the number clear as day, but as soon as light hits it, you can't see a thing.
@@trinityt rust-oleum reflective spray
That would be noticeable to cars with lights behind you and draw attention.
@@rickolfano39 I don't the average Joe really cares, or even more likely think it's pretty cool. I can see maybe a cop getting behind you at night might be interested, but these days, unless you're doing something blatantly stupid in front of them, they probably don't care either.
People in Philly just take the plate completely off, smfh
When a cop sees it you'll get a expensive ticket.
yeah, when he sees it. Emphasis on when. There are not infinite number of cops out there, you do realize that, don't you? There are more of us than there are them.
Yep. There is obstructed license plate ticket (accidentally got dirt or mud on it) and then a more serious more expensive ticket when someone intentionally obstructs the view of the plate to avoid cameras. Maybe it is better to not drive reckless, stop at right lights and pay your tolls. I hate tolls but it is what it is.
thats if the cop pulls you over(run from the police)
@@egreen5217that’s great advice. Can’t wait to see you on the news.
Remember that a cop will usually approach your car from the left side. In the daytime it will be apparent that something is distorting the license place.
In some states, anything over your plate including a clear cover will get you a ticket. And when the officer sees what you have your car is impounded. Just walking by your car a cop will see it.. so your cost can be over a thousand dollars.
Several states prohibit any type of cover between the plate and open air. Even if it is absolutely clear. So, have a nice ticket if you do it. And of course, you provide Probable Cause to be pulled over.
Will this work on a normal cctv camera?
When I worked as a motor officer in California, Steve Jobs (Apple) would drive his Mercedes two door roadster around without the plate. It was just a fix it ticket anyway, and he didn't want people knowing his license plate. You could always go that route.
If the stripes would be horizontal it wouldn’t be visible from straight angle either
You can actually make yourself invisible to security cam by wearing some sort of pattern shirt, too !
that defeats the whole point might as well just remove the plate
Cameras still see you, your car and what you are doing..🤷♂️🤦♀️🤷🏾♀️
I heard Clear Grip Tape for skateboards actually works for license plates. Maybe you could test that theory out next?
it doesn't work. i tried it and still got a school zone camera ticket
Get one of those glass panes that turn opaque and set it to a switch. You'll have to know where the cameras are though. Don't do this of course lol.
This is called electrochromatic glass. This is the only option that is both stealthy enough to avoid detection when not in use, and absolutely effective. The downside (other than it still being a cover) is $$$$$!
Idk if you read comments. But I would give you whatever stainless you want. As long as it isn’t a lot. Also, you saddle could off been a lot easier.
Those are cool however in our area their illegal. Something to do with obstructing view especially with some are yellowing.
Dude that lens is used to magnify light and start fires. It could literally start your car on fire in the right conditions 😂😂
Only criminals need to do this.
almost every speed camera these days have this factored in how the cameras are positioned. they no longer place cameras at an acute angle to capture plates, sometimes the distance can be almost 200 feet before they snap the picture. this puts the plate more square to the camera nullifying the Fresnel effect. might as well put a big smiley face next to your plate, at least someone at traffic control may get a chuckle before they process your fine.
FYI, such frames are illegal in North Carolina.
Why don't you build a frame with privaglass in in front of the plate.
There os allways a flash before the picture of your plate is taken, so the privaglass must be activated by a sensor.
$30-$40 vs $120-$600 fine 🤷♂️
May be put the lense in peices so deflect I on is up down instead side to side. Updown would block cameras from higher up and not be noticable at same level right and left when in another vehicle
Would this work on a motorcycle
It's a Fresnel lens.
Where can I buy
When you see old digital TVs on the curb they have Fresnel lenses in them
Does it work with phone cameras also?
That’s a great idea. Your car looks awesome with the thrusters. Dare I say your a Star Wars fan!
Any way to keep switching it on and off? Besides unscrewing all the time?
How about LCD technology?
How to get ticketed, fined, and potentially arrested in .02 seconds
NICE!!
These are illegal almost everywhere now
Hi...its a good idea ... Did you try the polarizer glass for cctv... I hope you can read my suggestions 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for helping the hit-n-runners make a clean getaway
Yeah, the most impulsive type of criminal is gonna do the homework required to pull off this hiest 🙄
@@PharociousArtsomeone who hit and runs probably also has a personality that makes them want to disobey other traffic rules.(Red lights, speeding, tolls, ect)
2 layers of Fresnel lens may block it better. Most modern TV's use a Fresnel lens. Never thought to use it for a purpose like this but I had a 60" Fresnel lens I threw out a couple years ago. Who knew.
So I noticed the license plate cover had a curve to it. Would this work any different if the cover was flat?
good question! I would thinks it would work better on a flat, clear cover
It doesn’t work for cameras,tolls etc I still got tickets . In fl we have extra red light cameras if the first one didn’t catch it not worth it unless u get the electronic version
@@smoothhaha23 electronic version? Got a link where a guy can see what you're talking about?
DMV has an investigative division . If you get caught , you could be lookong at not just a fine, but losing your driving priveleges !
Should i do this for both rear and front plate? I ordered one for the back. Not sure if the cameras also take pics of the front
Yes-they take it from both ways.
We call them ghosts plates in australia.unfortianayely highly illegal
Cops with lifted truck be like: COME HERE BOIIII
The po-po would definitely pull you over if they saw such a plate. They could tell by not being able to see from an angle.
This should work in Mexico for saving all the damn tolls
The problem with this idea is if it obscures visibility of the plate it can cost you a ticket from the local POPO.
What the heck are those things attached to your car?... jet engines? Lol.
I still waiting on a CZcams video guide on how to get away with murder, in case I get pulled over by the police for having a trick cover over my license plate.
BEWARE. .... In Canada this is illegal... The fine is substantial
This may work for surveillance cameras but, not traffic cameras. Tags have a chip that is read by the cameras. I verified this when I drove in an express lane with temporary new car tag and got a bill in the mail. It's the same technology police cars have to scan for expired tags, warrants, stolen car, etc.
Now that is something I never knew!
When I see a comment like this, I Fact Check it.
Sure enough, the testing of these chips embedded in tags started in 2005.
At least in Texas, ALL tags have them now.
Very interesting.
Thanks for posting that!
Random but, do these work with flat covers?
Just buy round
