(1/6) > >>

lambert:
because my life is both busy and complicated my olds are buying my rfl today howeve they are in the next county so, if as may be the case i need to go out in the disco(which is sorned) befor i see them to retreive the actual disc can i, or am i obliged to display it in the car?

Frankie-Boy:
If you get caught you may face a fine for "Failing to Display" the disc, sorry.  :(

ben-dent:
aslong as the vehicle is shown as being taxed on the ANPR then they cant do much, (ideally you should display but because so many people order their RFL on the internet, they allow you to use the vehicles for upto 5 days with out Displaying)

Boddle:
With regards to a conversation with the police a friend had on this subject whilest the RFL is in the post you can park the vehicle on the road but not drive it until it is displayed in the screen.

Utter BS if you paid for it then use it, but if thats the case why did i not get a telling off or a fine when i was stopped a few months ago for failure to display, i had the piece of paper to say i had paid it online,

easiest thing to do is if you do get stopped, claim when you left the house this morning you thought you had the disc and was going to fit it when you got a minute and that you have only just realised it was still at home, and you are going to get it, they dont need to know you have just left your house heading for your parents,
