As my Car is still wearing her first disc I will save it for posterity. It will be interesting to see how much money DVLA will save with this measure. My view is it will cost far more to chase up the tax dodgers once the disc is gone, it's OK to say that they will be checked electronically but by who ? The current DVLA database is 3 months out of date. Trust me the police are not going to be driving around checking every vehicle on an out of date database or an up to date one either.
The Police haven't checked tax discs for years, it's not there remit its a DVLA job.
Cle2/6 forms were withdrawn in the 1990's
It will be an electronic check and auto fine as of October. Same as Road Fund licence is now.
My last "fraudulent" tax disc was in the 1980's ( I did the nicking ! lol )
