So animal torture labs are exempt?

"...Legislation makes it clear that all traffic that is driven on a
public highway must have a registration plate clearly displayed. Yet
over the last few weeks numerous vehicles have been driven around the
new animal torture lab with no registration plates. When this was
taken up with Thames Valley Police they claimed that reg plates were
not needed in this instance. However, a copy of the legislation gained
from another police force shows that the Oxford University
construction traffic DOES need registration plates for their vehicles,
a part of the legislation that was mysteriously missing from TVP’s
copy…"

What torture labs are these?

No it does not. Some people are exempt.

You only want this, so you can send your "rent a thug" mates round to
beat up the child minders of the construction workers.
You would not even have the guts to protest here yourself.

Are some motor vehicles? If so perhaps you could tell us which ones
they are and what under what law the exemption is made?

I will give you the one exemption I can think of. Trains operating
on roads (very few instances left now) do not have to have a
registration plate. However, they do have railway numbers on every
vehicle and the staff can be identified from railway records. While
trains are not motor vehicles according to road legislation, a
diesel powered locomotive or multiple unit is a motor vehicle as far
as the English language is concerned and I have seen both operating
on roads (some time ago).

Once again, you are totally wrong.

Ah, proof by assertion. Very convincing.

Other than perhaps one or two ceremonial cars used by the queen I
can't think of any motorised road vehicles which are exempt from the
law.

Note also that Doug was not wrong, though the article he quoted may
be wrong. There is obviously a big flaw in the article, as it is
only motorised road vehicles that have to display such a plate.
Confusing traffic and motorised traffic is something generally done
by the motoring lobby and its supporters. The author is presumably
from the animal rights lobby and may simply not be aware of the
issue.

I don't think even the "animal rights lobby" want to claim Duhg as one of
theirs.

The article refers to the location of the vehicles in a very ambiguous
way. Are they merely lacking plates whilst on the site itself? If so, I
don't see the issue, since they're not on a public road.

Of course, Duhg is conveniently forgetting WHY those involved in building
this facility may wish to protect their identity...

I have seen a few building sites. I can't recall any where most
motor vehicles were only used on the site. Most are driven on and
off.

They are doing two things. Firstly, they don't like being lobbied,
but would rather take the money and not think about the implications
of their work. Secondly, they are taking part in a theatrical
performance by wearing the masks.

Note also that if the animal rights lobby try to protect their
identity they are treated very differently by the so-called forces
of law and order. That sort of blatant one-sidedness is why
respectable people have reservations about the activities of the
police.

Theres no such thing as "animal rights" - they're animals FFS. Why
don't these people come off emotional autopilot and engage their
brains occasionally.

If some guinea pig or 12 has to die to find a cure for a drug that
might one day save me or one of my family that just fine by me and the
bunny huggers can just go swivel on it.

Why on earth not? It would broaden their profile a tiny bit.
