For Texas plates, just use texaslicenseplatelookup . com and it'll give you all the info you need. I think it'll cost you $10 or so. We did it a long time ago to track down a hit and run that plowed in to the back of my wife.

LEO's, yes, they can.
The program we used to use at the dealership was for tracking down people who decided to stop paying the dealership (which was a bank for financing too) and repo cars. It was done through a password protected link for the Utah DMV, that not just anyone can have obviously, but our dealership had permission to use (for a cost of course.) If I remember right, the cost was about $20 each time a check was ran, so we were careful not to abuse it, but we could.... I'm not interested in trying to prove it to you any further than that.

Information I got from that pic you posted...

Your name is Richard "Chip" Myre.
Date of birth: 8-13-1969
Place of residence: San Antone, TX
Place pic was taken: Your garage
Hobbies: Drinkin very cold bear, and working on your 43 step program to help reduce your urge to be a poser. You like to ride your Harley as often as you can. You like to challenge people (who really have no interest who or where you are), to prove they can locate you by using one picture. You also enjoy being a member of the Masons.


Still working on deciphering the pic data...

Current Job:
  • Project Coordinator at Nxxxrs Industries
Past Employment:
  • Field Supervisor at Bxxxr Hxxhxs / BJ Services
  • Master Service Supervisor (Frac Trxxxer & Cementer) at BJ Services
  • Safety & Training Supervisor (HSE Specialist) at BJ Services


Education
  • Delta College
  • Saginaw High School
  • BJ Services / Bxxxr Hxxhxs

I have your current address, and cell number, but I won't post it here...

(And please don't threaten me with your group of friends who all own guns...
I just happen to own a Superman cape, which makes me bullet proof. And that is under my Harry Potter Cape of Invisibility. You cannot shoot what you cannot see. If you do, you might just catch the ricochet! I do not pose any threat to you, or your family. I am only dangerous to myself. I am also not going to ask about your work at "BJ Services". You only have yourself to answer to for that commitment! )

And then...there's the vanity plate threads which show off their license plates...lol.

I've never really worried about my plates in pics of the bike. I'm not that hard to find...

I ain't skeert...

And you did not get that info from that pic...

The first part came from my profile information here.

The middle part is most likely from Facebook.

The last part was probably from a professional networking site... there are a couple out there, and my resume' is posted.

But none of that info came from "picture data" or DMV... a Google search with the profile information we provide on forums can produce a lot of info.

I'm not a secretive person, nor am i afraid of the "internet boogeyman".

I have been in the oilfield for 19 years, started with an outfit called NOWSCO, who was purchased by BJ Services in 1996. BJ Services was a Fortune 500 company, the third largest pumping services company in the world, a multi-billion dollar high pressure pumping services company in the oilfield, who, in 2011 iirc, was bought out by Baker Hughes for an amount in excess of 5 billion dollars.




...and I've got some good stories about having fun with our company name.

I guess what I'm getting at is you gained all that info about me, without using my plate....

So what good is it to cover a plate?

LEO's, yes, they can.

But if it were that easy, they can track you down after they see your plate at WalMart...

OR

They could just follow you home.

If someone wants to come track me down from California or Vermont or wherever, I'm in San Antonio, Texas....

Ask and ye shall recieve. http://verispy.com/dmv/license-plate...Fa1j7AodTCAABA You can look up someones plate info, but it will cost ya.,,

You are correct, but the boogeyman ain't spending 30 bucks to learn about me.

Easier to do a google search.

For the same money, you could do a full criminal background check on me with all sorts of records, and not need a plate


I still contend that covering or blurring plates is useless, and a waste of time... but if it makes a fella feel better, I'm not against it either.

OK, here's one example.
I'm a nut, LEO. You make this statement. I cross reference your plate #, and BANG<BANG<BANG. ATF's knocking on your door.
Busted.

Busted for what?

Owning firearms?

Being proficient with firearms?

Carrying a CHL? They already know that...
