Yeah not sure Plas. Dumb is dumb is Dumb is all I got. I'd have just walked away too. Seems really odd but there it is.
Maybe they thought none would notice. You'd just take all the fake shit off and not draw attention to the wrong plates? Maybe they thought noone would look. Also the article doesn't say that the guys were picked up by the cops. Maybe they did walk away? Not sure

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

I think there's more to it. Legitimate owners with dodgy plates because they're playing down closed tracks. But I'm not really in the loop and don't know the facts so that's just my assumption right or wrong as it is!
What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal??

A guesstimated 60T Modern B Double quarry Professional Hauler was directly behind the Semi and somehow managed to high speed wiggle his own trailer lock ups between the vertical embankment to his left and by that time my GQ ute licking paint off the Armco railing.

Had a similar experience once when a HUGE fire extinguisher felt from a oncoming tanker on a left turn (LHD here). That huge red torpedo coming straight at me and for that couple of seconds I could not decide if I would hit the brakes or go full throttle. The darn thing hit me in between the axles, on the truck belly. Unbelievable. I stopped on the first safe place I found on that twisty road for inspection, and the belly of the truck was scratched and with red paint remains... If that thing had hit one of the axles it would have ripped it out of the chassis no doubt...

And then when they realized it turned into a Cop situation, they bailed out and reported the vehicles were stolen two days before...

As stated in the vid. Get as much info from them and ask the relevant questions, if they are seriously in need of help, they will answer correctly I suppose. But it makes you think twice hey.
Reminds me of the time when i saw a young lass with the bonnet up on the side of the road, I stopped and asked if she needed help, her response was to mind my own fucking business. in those words. So I drove off.
