Check this out. A rider was trapped in Spain using a mechanism to change one number of his license tag.

That would've come in real handy as I blew through that toll plaza yesterday... Whoops.

Try riding in the far left of the lane as you pass through the gate.
I have been giving some thought to an undertail for this purpose. If the plate is under the tail, the camera can't take a clear picture. I would feel guilty about it if the management of the toll ways were still a public entity instead of some Perry contributor.

Hehe... What I feel bad about is the $25 penalty I might get in the mail. I don't mind the $0.60 so much because I never toll-road it on the 599. This particular time, I just forgot the ramp had to enter PGBT...
Back to Spain... seems like cops would be smart enough to figure out the error in one digit, though. What you need is a license plate on a hinge that just folds up so NOTHING shows... :twisted:

Cops use to stop groups of riders on popular roads and examine every single bike closely looking for ways to evade the photo radars.

Did you ever get harassed on stopped in Spain just because you were on a motorcycle?
On certain roads, with a record of several accidents every weekend, cops are all over, even using helicopters. But there are too many motorcycles around to feel harassed.
If they'd pull you over just for riding there won't be cops enough.
