I mean it's hardly likely to still be in the car park by the time someone comes to check now is it

Having a tax disc that can be glanced at to see if the VRM matches the disc and the plates while you stop a car is one of the biggest giveaways to a stolen vehicle right now to see whether it's worthwhile doing a full check of the vehicle and it's occupants via PNC.
Contrary to the beliefs of some this information is not sitting at their fingertips. ANPR cars are still quite rare, nothing right now stops stolen or cloned plates effectively and even getting through to a PNC operator on the radio can be a challenge at busy times.
Crap idea. Like so many thought up by someone who is looking at a single function without seeing the bigger picture.
