all those things are risky as fuck with police AI number plate recognition these days. it would take no time at all to track someone down over $50 theft

$50 for the gas theft... how much for the tampering with government mandated ID, or whatever they'd call swapping plates?

exactly. its a crime from a different era, risks far outweigh reward now
