Unusual question: I would like to swap plates with someone. Is that possible at all? I know that my desired plate exists but don't know the owner. It's not a personalized plate - just an ordinary one. How can I contact the owner?

Hi there,
Standard issue government pates are not able to be changed from the vehicle it was originally fitted, this is only reserved for personalised plates.
Due to the privacy act, you are also not able to obtain personal information about a vehicle owner.
