Why is his license plate blurred in the video?

Especially when he read it out loud lol

Thank you for pointing that out to me because I really missed that.

That does make blurring the license plate hilariously futile. Well, unless people need to go get their ears checked or cleaned like me.

Thanks again. You gave me something to laugh and something to worry about.

Cheers.

And why doesn't that reg no show up in the MOT history search?

Did he manage to crash and write it off before it needed an MOT?

UK privacy laws. the driver may have had an attorney come after the biker and clean the MOT. This seems like malicious compliance on Mikeys part to me...

Now I'm wondering if the carbrain is someone "important".

Edit: just checked the YouTube video, it's fully blurred now.
