I crop my photos. Not always good though as shown here. I want a bit of the scenery too if it exists ^^

I'll crop better in the future though. Thank you  :)

The rules require the car to take up at least 1/6 of the photo.
You don't crop harder because pixels will appear   !;) . This indicates that you have a weak camera. This is not a problem if you take a photo of a car without movement and from a closer distance.
Sorry for the lecture. But if your hobby is for a long time, then you need to improve the quality. Otherwise, you will regret the lost opportunities  :drink:

I'm sorry, I didn't know that. I'll definetly do better in the future. Thanks for mentioning this.

Yes, my camera is very weak. I'm using my phone and a lot of pictures I take I can't upload due to the plate being unreadable.

It's fine! I appreciate it a lot. Without this lecture I wouldn't know much better. Sorry if this is a dumb question. But what should I look for in a camera? That can capture movement well.

unfortunately, for moving objects you need a SLR camera. I use a not very expensive Nikon 3500 18-55mm. Even a good smartphone will not allow you to get a high-quality picture for a moving subject. But you can get a good shot from a bad camera. All you need, is not trembling hands, focus time, close range and some good weather  :D
For example, here is shot from an old Chinese noname smartphone that I bought for my little son.

Okay, I see. I'll invest in a better camera in the future. Cameras are so expensive today so I need to save up first. Thanks for the help though, much appreciated.

It makes sense I feel like, phones are not made to be good cameras.

That fits with me! I can take good pictures when it's close and good weather. But when it's far away it's way harder. I've seen a lot of foreign plates that I've wanted to upload but the plate is unreadable.

Thanks again for the help. I appreciate it a lot. I'll invest as soon as possible  :D

This is not true. I never had an SLR camera in my life, but still uploaded thousands of decent quality photos of moving cars.  :D
A compact camera with at least 8-10x optical zoom works fine too. Unfortunately they're getting difficult to find, last time I wanted to buy one, it seemed like all of them were out of stock or no longer in production.  :( (Maybe it's easier to buy one used, but then it might break at any time...)

Sorry, my friend, but we have a different concept of quality  :D . Your quality is not bad for a website, but the pixels are visible even without zoom. I cut the number into my virtual collection, that is, I do a multiple zoom. And I like it when the picture is not blurry and I can see little details   !;)

Well. I got some news. Quality might get better in the future! ^^ Bought recently a used Nikon 550D. My friend has one and they inspired me to get one too. Just waiting for it to arrive and start spotting for real!  :D

I thought it was going to take awhile since cameras nowadays are so expensive. But I found a good used one! Only about 1,600 pictures or something taken. So next week or in two weeks, quality should be much better.
