Reply to comment by insearchofbeer in ‘Ghost Cars’: Blurred Plates, No Plates on Philly Streets, Beyond – NBC10 Philadelphia by Fattom23

I’m saying if you wanted a car with no plate towed, could you put a fake plate on it?

You would have to put a fake plate, call the cops, cross your fingers that they come out and don't notice that the plate probably doesn't match the car, hope they ticket it, and then report the illegally parked vehicle to the police for towing. By that point, the driver has gotten at least 4-5 hours of free, illegal parking. Why would anyone follow the rules?
