A motorist has been fined £175 for breaching vehicle laws with a Scooby Doo logo on his number plate. Thomas Edwards, of Codsall, was also ordered to pay £50 in costs and a £15 victim surcharge. The 22-year-old was convicted of breaching the Vehicle Excise and Registration Act with his Subaru Impreza. Magistrates in Wolverhampton heard both plates on the car failed to conform to the laws as they had a Scooby Doo logo “to the left of the lettering”. Edwards told the Wolverhampton Express and Star that he regarded his prosecution as totally unfair. More
