Do cops ever stop drivers without license plates?

Did this Thai male in his twenties have a name? Seemed to be no problem with the name of the receiver of the young man's reckless driving. Looking at the wreckage, must have been going at a fairly good clip, ya think? Good he was injured and couldn't run away.

So was the un-plated Honda rider trying to avoid the police?

Ok, so he collided with a traffic light.  So how did the other motorcycle get involved?  Gives one a headache reading these types of "news" reports!
