Re: And this ladies and gentlemen...

It is plainly absurd to have a number plate format where there can be any ambiguity between letters and numbers. How would that work? e.g. would they send the speed camera fine to 1YO0I2 when it was IY0O12 that was photographed?

That being the case, there really isn't any excuse for the council to issue fines to people who put an 0 instead of an O.
