I buy mine from our local post office - it may close if more people go online to do things

Not Quite

You relicence the veichle yearly. Last time I did it wasd Ca$45 (About £20). Your licence must be renewed every two years, if you just turn up, its a rubberstamp job. however if (like me) you leave it more than that then yes, you have to take an abreviated test again. You are treated like a new driver, eg if I go back and start driving outside my 12 month overlap on the UK Licence I'll get hammered for insurance for 6 months (new drivers pay about 4x what they will eventually pay for 6 months)

Its also a criminal offence NOT to carry your insurance details.

It does of course very a from state to state/province. I think the best bit was:

R1CH 1
DMC 12
OUTATM

All cost me £100 each, as opposed to what, easilly a good few £1000 here

I think this is changing, isn't it? I don't think the post offices are going to be issuing road tax any more. Or am I thinking of something else?
