I just learned about a website that lets you post complaints about a vehicle, indexed by license plate number. I found out about it through boingboing.net today.
www.platewire.com

(I did a search for it here, and found only one reference in Road Cycling, so I thought I'd give it it's own thread. Also, I don't have any affiliation with the website)

ABC's Nightline is going to do a story about them on 1/19/07

From Platewire Blogsite
ABC's NightLine is working on a story based around sites like PlateWire. They captured some good footage of my basement office where PlateWire was born and asked some good questions. The show will air this Friday night, January 19th 2007.
