When it comes to forgeries, this one turned out to be paper thin.
A New York woman was arrested on Wednesday after being discovered driving around with a licence plate made from painted cardboard.
Amanda Schweickert, 28, from Sardinia, was arrested in Erie County after officers noticed she didn't have a front licence plate, and the rear one looked unusual.

Officers said they first noticed that Schweickert's car had no front licence plate, then saw that her rear plate looked unusual and so decided to pull her over
Cops then discovered that the rear plate was made from cardboard and had been attached with screws. It is unclear if Schweickert made a front plate which fell off, or if she thought one plate would be enough

It subsequently turned out that she had painted a piece of cardboard blue and yellow to appear like a licence plate, before attaching it to the rear of her car with screws.
It is unclear whether she made a second false plate for the front and it fell off, or if she thought that one would be enough to complete the deception.
It also transpired that Schweickert's registration had been suspended and she had no insurance, officers said, perhaps explaining the reason behind her attempted deception.
