driving about without a tax disc?

<< < (2/6) > >>

Frankie-Boy:

Steady on Ben, no need to get upset about it, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and to read it how they see the law, just as no two police officers would necessarily see it the same way, its open to individual interpretation.

The rules used to be such that you could get a fine if you weren't displaying the disc, as far as I know there hasn't been a change in that, maybe someone nearer to the actual point of law could enlighten us once and for all.

Yoshi:
There was this discussion a while ago on here, and it was pointed out that failing to display a tax disc is an actual offence.  I think it was written actually on the tax disc (i have one here so going to look now)

Yoshi:
This is the tax disc from me retaxing me Fiesta yesterday.  As you can see in the bottom right corner there is a little note about the legality of displaying the tax disc, i.e. dont and you can get fined £200

Mud_Medic:
The offence is failure to display.

I had a tug by the  :police: when the tax disc was on the dash board, and not flat against the windscreen. They couldn't see it, and thus were going to do me for failure to display  :shock:. It was only after promising  [-o< to securely fix the disc with a proper holder, and a temp tack with tape they let me on my way without a ticket!

YMMV
