Default Microchipped number plates

Or you could simply fake a plate that looks like a real one - so how will
the "automatic detection" know if a car is there or not ?


Because the device reading the microchip will not detect its existence in
the plate. Simple - if it ain't there, then it is fake!

From the transponder reader's pov, what's the difference between a car
without a transponder and an empty space without a transponder?


What will happen regarding foreign registered vehicles ?


Such a miniscule problem, why worry?

I'd like to know what will happen to foreign visitors if they bring
their cars to the UK. Will the cars be impounded? How will the system
detect a foreign car?
