I've fitted my new registration, taken a chance on a 7 x 5" plate.
Will it get me pulled?

That size looks 'just right'
Think it all depends on the individual Plod mate.
I've got 3 that size and haven't been pulled yet. However, if you get stopped for speeding say, then you might get done for the plate then :|
Only ever been stopped for a plate that was a letter box size held on with tie wraps :oops:

Plate only needs to comply with the law in 1973, not 2023. :wink:
