Another danger:

Have you ever bought or rented a car?  That place has your Driver 
License number, etc.

And, by an amazing coincidence, a couple of years later... You 
receive a notice from the Parking Violations Bureau.

It seems that, some OTHER car (that have never even seen), got a 
few parking tickets, on a side street, right next to that  
sales/rental lot.

And the registered owner (I wonder who that might be?), told the 
Parking Violations Bureau that the car was really in YOUR 
possession when those tickets were issued.

And the Epsilon Minus Sub-Morons at the Parking Violations Bureau 
cannot even suggest any way to challenge YOUR alleged liability 
for those tickets.  And you don't even get a response to your 
protest letters.
