TAX VIRGIN

[SteveWilko]

I just taxed my bike for the first time online.... fekkin great.... so easy...
Message came up and read that my disc will be with me in 5 working days...

I just hope that DVLA spoke to plod and his mates to let them know that old Oxy wil be riding his steed with no tax disc on it....
BE WARNED PLOD..... I AM ARMED WITH A TINTERNET EMAIL AS PROOF...

That didn't work for me - apparently, as my insurance was up for renewal the following week the online system didn't allow it. Had to queue up at the post office.

It worked for my car though. A good time saver.

Actually it's an offence if you are not displaying a tax disc, the fact you've paid doesn't make any difference. (So, technically, if some thieving wee sh*te nicks your tax disc then you are breaking the law). But I wouldn't worry about it, the chances of getting caught are probably about zero.

You're probably more likely to be prosecuted some time when you do have a valid tax disc, because the database record is wrong...
