Neighbor driving 2 cars with 1 license plate, report to NCPD? (Hope: insurance, live)

[kayfouroh]

Annoying neighbors are switching plates between cars.. meaning they have 2 of the same car (2 Acura Integras) with 1 license plate each... both license plate #s match.

Can I be that guy and call NCPD and report it? One is parked in the driveway and the other on the street.

Yup. Wouldn't admit you're the neighbor though- NCPD -WILL- rat you out.

...also take pictures, and feel free to call an insurance agent to find out who insures 'the' car. Whatever company insures them will drop them if both cars are being used.

Speaking of insurance, they have a third car with FL plates, that obviously is here all the time.. it even has a window sticker advertisement for their business (which has a 516 area code, obviously)

Honestly though (and I usually agree with most your posts), I would say don't tell NCPD. If they aren't hurting you and this doesn't impact you in any way, you're just being a nosy tattle. I would advise against it and just go about your own business. You know you're a good honest person. Unfortunately not everyone is. Just get satisfaction in yourself that you are doing things right. Also, ratting out them could maybe jeopardize your relationship with them (if you have a good one with them, why risk it?)

My 2 cents.

They are, and it does.

I live on the same property as them.

That's about the worse advice you can give If the car is not insured properly and it hits you or a family member you are screwed . Another good reason to "rat" them out is peoples like this causes everyone to pay higher policies.

Also I love this line "If they aren't hurting you and this doesn't impact you in any way, you're just being a nosy tattle." Yes if their selling drugs or illegal firearms or any other criminal or code violations....just turn a blind eye to it...... wow

People like this impact everyone. They're committing insurance fraud. So, what happens if they have a major accident, kill someone, and the car they're driving happens to be the one WITHOUT the insurance? Guess who pays???? Yep, all of us through higher insurance premiums.

If you want to drive, properly register and insure your cars. Don't be a criminal switching plates and obviously having 1 insurance policy on one car and hoping no one will know if you're driving the other car.

(before you say it.... when you have an accident? They go by the car's VIN, not the license plate)

Are you in a village or area with parking restrictions?

Maybe you can go about it another way?
