Displaying Tax

Discussion in 'UK Motorcycles' started by Nick, Feb 1, 2005.

  1. I borrowed a bike once which wasn't taxed when I was stopped (on a
    sunday) but I then went and taxed it backdating it to cover the period
    I'd been riding.

    taken to court for no tax so I went and explained and they didn't do
    me for that but said I had to pay the costs...which was more than the
    fecking tax had been.

  2. That's unlucky. I once got reported for having no tax on a bike that I
    really didn't have any tax on (at the same time as getting a parking
    ticket - London Parks Police). I said I had tax, which I didn't but
    hurriedly went and got some and luckily for me I never heard anything
    back. That was about 2 or 3 years ago.

    So what you're saying is, it's a bit of a lottery.

    I've never displayed a tax disc. Did a Bikesafe day with the Met police
    last month and no-one commented on it's absence.

  4. I've seen the DVLA advert -- if you can't be bothered getting it taxed,
    then it probably isn't MOT'd... and if it isn't MOT'd it probably isn't
    roadworthy.... MURDERER!!!! Baby-killers like you should be hung. Or
    locked up. Or hung *and* locked up. Twice.
