A topic from Vehicles & Transport: Cars

laresMon 27/10/08 08:44		As I'm unpacking the car Saturday evening, I casually notice that I've not changed the tax disc from last year's yet and make a note to do it later on. Later on, I look through my car papers and find the reminder still there, untouched and I suddenly realise I haven't taxed the car at all. It ran out at the end of September. Eek! Thank God for online-taxing. For people like me, they need to send at least 3 extra reminders.

My parents had the same (well their's was because the garage didn't send the right paper work to the DVLA so they never got the reminder) - although it was a traffic warden that pointed it out to mum. I'm usually quite good at remembering to do it - although I have had the situation where I have the tax disc, but forget to put it into my car for a few days :S.

laresMon 27/10/08 09:49		quoting > "I'm usually quite good at remembering to do it " Me too, I must have had the MOT done and then just forgot to do the tax bit. I think you're right, I'm very lucky I wasn't pulled over/ticketed. I assume that since the online form started the tax from Oct 1 that'll be the end of it (i.e. they won't come after me for not SORNing, etc).
bencatMon 27/10/08 10:10		gosh John lucky you weren't stopped you may find that you've been issued with an automatic penalty already (but I think you have 28 days before that happens) I always forget to get tax for about a week after it expires If you don't tax or SORN your vehicle The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency carries out a computer check each month, as well as roadside checks to identify those vehicles without a valid tax disc. You could face an automatic penalty of £80 as well as a minimum fine of £1000. Your vehicle could be clamped, impounded or even crushed.
