NHK Attaches Fake License Plate to Private Car, Car Drives Off

N-H-K was filming a drama yesterday in Chiba Prefecture, and to create the illusion that the story was taking place in Okayama, they attached a fake paper license plate to the front of a car in the background of one of the films they were filming:

After some filming, they took a break. When they came back to remove the fake license plate, they found that the car had driven off!

If you find this attached to your license plate, please call N-H-K and yell at them for their idiocy:

Sweet miss. That’s pretty funny. They go door to door and demand payment from everyone with a TV, and they can’t even afford to hire competent people on their staff!

I love those cartoons. XD Its the best way to explain what happened.

Can’t really call the drive an idiot for driving off. I sure as hell don’t check my license plate every time I stop somewhere. And I sure as heck wouldn’t be thinking that a film crew was covering my plate up with a fake plate.

He wasn’t say yell at the driver, he said yell at NHK. There was nothing about the driver being an idiot.

the people who were filming should have been more careful with the car and that they should have put a note or a message about the fake licence plate.

Haha, the person should make NHK pay some sort of compensation in order to get the license plate back. Finder’s fee or something.

Watch for this fake plate to end up on Yahoo Auctions by the end of the week!

So NHK reserves the right to use whatever lies in their shot as their own prop? I’m pretty sure if I went around with a camera touching and tampering with other people’s property, I’d be arrested.
