Well, this Is certainly a different SE to any other on this board.

When the police gets involved in public traffic, simple safety measures like
1) not using any drugs at all
2) not going past the speed limit at all
3) keeping your certificate of insurance and vehicle documents with you all the time
should be adhered to to avoid complications

What happens when the police do a license plate and vehicle background check?

First, I want to clarify that it is not a car that I'm talking about. They need to be licensed at public office where I am located right now, hence messing with the necessary documents to do so means very serious theft. I am not going to do that.
Rather, what I would be interested in is something like this:


When you think about it, they aren't very different from the smaller electric scooters that have been discussed on this board before. Both legally need a license plate, which is provided by your insurance company. This is where problems may arise. In case your insurance company somehow detects that you are insuring a lost/stolen vehicle, serious trouble might be around the corner.
In case they would provide the license plate without problems, I would guess that the police might not cause a problem either. As these kinds of vehicles don't require any extra certificates to be carried around, they don't have a direct way to check the vehicles background itself other than the license plate.
Of course, they may be able to find out the vehicle was reported lost/stolen by checking (with the provider of) the license plate though.

All of this is theory and I will not go ahead with this with so many unknown variables. This thread is mainly for discussion purpose.
I wonder how others who have SE'd small electric scooters have handled this, as they also need insurance and a license plate in my region. Might be different elsewhere?

What kind of method are you planning on using? Not sure where you're from, but here you need some papers stating that the vehicle's owner changed, and you can't really do that if the current owner doesn't cooperate

The DNA is the only option. The types of vehicles I am referring to are licensed by the insurance company and don't require that, read in my post above. SEing a car that has to be picked up physically would be a whole different story.

It's a very complex SE that will Inevitably have consequences down the track.

If you plan to go ahead with It, do keep us Informed.
