This policy defeats the very purpose (security) why it’s being implemented. It’ll rather compromise the security of individuals as it’s going to be easy for individuals to be exposed to criminals who may want to attack them. The existing registration protocols provide enough security since the numbers on the plates are in the system of DVLA that can easily be traced.

It's a lie! It's rather going to expose the thieves, in that, without the approval of the existing owner, you can't change into a new name.

The number is just a personal code. It is linked to your details, including name. Once your number is identified, it's identification of the name and all details behind it. If you need to update with ghana card ID, that's possible. No need to issue a new card. Name alone is not enough-already on the card. Waste of time and resources.

Instead of these complications the number should be linked to the car and its specific characteristics, its registered address being where the owner lives and then add the owner's details, photo, and Ghana card in the database

Do not misinteprate “travel and see”.
Look in your current DVLA vehicle booklet, the booklet has the owners name against the vehicle registration number. If and when the vehicle changes hands, the vehicle number is transferred to the new owner, unless the new owner opts for a new vehicle number. This is what pertains in most developed countries.
The “new” system the DVLA is announcing is rather a retrogressive step meant to milk Ghanaians. It is a revenue gaining initiative to generate internal generated funds.
All those Ghanaians who claim the new DVLA policy is what happens in developed counties are ignorant and fickle minded. The current DVLA vehicle number plate registration is rather the standard globally.
Even personalised number plates can be transferred with the vehicle if sold and the former owner wants the personalised number to go with the sold vehicle.

In New York State, vehicle registration takes the same approach. The vehicle license plate number is traceable to the registrant. Street cameras would snap the picture of the place if the driver is caught driving through a red light or is caught speeding above the speed limit. The violation ticket is mailed to the owner of the vehicle, without regard to whoever was driving the vehicle at the time of the violation. In addition, if there’s any infraction that involved the plate, such as criminal activity or toll crossing evasion, the liability falls on the registrant on record. To avoid liability, the registrant of a vehicle must promptly notify the Police if his or her vehicle is stolen. Furthermore, if a vehicle is abandoned on a street or roadside, the cost of removing the junk plus any penalties ate billed to the registrant of the plate.

If your reason for changing the number plate is to curb 'goro boys', then this doesn't make sense. That doesn't warrant this complete was of resources to implement this unsuitable system.
The goro boys can be eliminated in very simple ways and without implementing this complete reshuffle in number plate registration.
