Very good J5, it is a bit of a waste of an item to attach to your bike or trailer.
It does confuse me also Rob that people need a sticker to remind them to pay it.
The info behind the story was that there are many more people risking not paying their rego because there are no stickers in place now, well in WA and SA and some people are calling for them to be bought back.
the real problem is if you rent a car or drive a company car then you will be the one responsible for
driving unrego
true story
a workmate driving his personal company van
he had changed over all his details at the rta
but his business was obviously under his business name so that was missed in the address chance
so the rego papers went to his old house not long after he moved
so with all the moving and busy life it was missed
along comes the police and pulls him over
smart arse senior copper gets him out of the van and round to the windscreen and points at the windscreen and says whats that ?
he replies its a crack in the windscreen but isnt in line of sight so it is ok
he replies no that sticker
he looks and says ahh yeh , but i havent got the rego papers , cant understand it
the rego had expired 2 days prior
a bit of too and fro and he realises the rta error in address change over
copper continues carrying on about he is the driver , driving that vehicle everyday that he should know
when the rego expires
by now poor josh is wound up and had a gutfull
he asks copper , is that your police car ? yes
do you drive it everyday ? yes
do YOU know when the rego expires
ahh no
2 younger coppers controlling fits of laughter watching senior guy being made a fool
he cops $400 odd in fine and on his way unhappy for the fine but happy for giving one back to the cops
