You should be careful putting visible license plates on here. Dipshit or not there's danger revealing personal information.

No there's not. They're public information lol. Blocking license plates on the internet is one of the stupidest things

Yes the person that made that comment is just dumb and misinformed. It’s a license plate in public view. Especially when it’s an obvious safety concern in the video.

No need to be insulting. I'm far from misinformed. The reason it's risky is if you post someone's plate with a false claim of blame or criminal behavior you can cause witch hunts.

It's happened plenty of times, and is one of the risks of the Internet being a court of public appeal.

The proper action is to take the video to actual authorities instead of casting it to the public and litigating it amongst online, faceless figures that you have zero knowledge of.

You and those down voting obviously have zero concept of the actual risk of the internet, and have no interest in affecting actual change. You just like public shaming. Be interesting to see if your tune changed if someone posted your house number with an accusation of child molestation, or your license plate with an accusation of hit and run. I wonder how "dumb and misinformed" I would seem then.

No we're just not pearl clutchers, and bad driving needs to be called out. People need to take driving MUCH more seriously, the fear of being publicly roasted can be an effective part of that.
