A distant neighbour in a road in London asked, 'Whose car is parked opposite our house. It has been there for weeks.' The writer showed a picture of the car numberplate.
I googled 'search numberplate' and immediately found a site which searches for car owners.
When could this be handy?
Is that car your neighbour's or their relative's? Or an abandoned stolen car whose owner would be glad to know and get it back?Useful Website
The reply in the street's whatsapp was that it was the family living opposite. They said, "It's ours. Any problems, please PM me.' That abbreviation, PM, means personal message.
Their problemis sorted. Now I know that I can find the owner of any car. And anybody can find te owner of my car. this might help in an accident. If the driver is unconscious in a car park or after an accident. The authorities or a bystander could contact nearby family. If you discover that a mere bump had actually done major, expensive damage to your car. Handy.
