While you were reading !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! - perhaps at the very same time, even - !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! after a WFAA Channel 8 piece about the very same topic - or perhaps Jason had a hand in it and WFAA just wants to steal all the credit.

Pete Turner, who you’ve also read about from Jason’s piece, claims the page was taken down by Facebook without warning, according to the WFAA article.

“Once the dust settles, I’ll start a new one,” quotes WFAA Channel 8. As Facebook likely took the page down due to some interpretation of TOS violation, it’s quite possible such future attempts at “You Can’t Drive, Dallas” will also be taken down. One has to wonder what kind of cat-and-mouse game Turner plans in defiance of Facebook, or if he’ll migrate to a new social media service.

Personally, I didn’t think a license plate should be able to lead the general public to my personal address, so I questioned the legality of the thing from the get-go. Maybe Texas realized a flaw in their RMV data online and made a change to it’s accessibility?

Remember this article?

Edit - hmmm, I guess that didn’t contain the info I thought it did. In fact, it contained an entirely different link I had forgotten about: http://lifehacker.com/5900349/learn-…

Some drives do need to be shamed, but it’s taken a bit far if your tail light is burnt. maybe it just happened to burn out and the idiot taking the picture has to make a scene of it.
