Driving through flash flood reveals just how flimsy the new license plates are

**JJ All Day** · June 19th, 2015 04:11 PM

it could be that the plate is not firmly attached to the bumper, thus the space between the plate and the bumper allowed force/current to penetrate.

so sobrang lakas ang current at headed ung current sa direction ng tsikot...

Ung lumang plates di naman nagaganyan nag river trekking using a tsikot na kami ang lakas pa ng current di naman nafold or damage ang plate siguro dahil sa Plate cover

its the bow wave that the car creates while driving forward that causes the plate number to be pushed up. chech google for bow waves created by cars crossing rivers and you will understand why it bends the plates upwards.

Paharap din yupi ng plates ko dati nung dumaan ako sa baha. Yung force yata ng water from the wheel wells ang tumulak sa plate.

Edit: Ayun, bow waves pala tawag dun.

Hindi mangyayari yan if may plate cover/protector.

Makukuha ko na yung bagong plate ko within d month...since bawal ang plate cover, pwede kaya ipatong yung bago sa lumang plate (aesthetics aside) para may masandalan yung bagong plate if totoo nga na flimsy ito? Pampadagdag rigidity lang...

**dinaan ko sa baha sa baha kagabi sa mandaluyong after ulan la naman nangyari sa lumang plate...
