    On saturday I noticed my tax disc bracket was missing,either vibrated off or was stolen.Ive sent off for a duplicate from Preston but it could take up to 7 working days to come back,am I still allowed to ride the bike as I am not displaying tax but the bike is leagally speaking,taxed.

    Take it easy out there

    Not sure about the law Digger but I’d stick something on saying “Tax Disc Stolen, new one applied for” or similar. Would probably not park in a traffic warden patrolled area though in case there is a ‘Jobsworth’ who fancies bumping his numbers up a bit.

    Thanks ID,ive read through that info and it pretty much says the same as the V20 form I picked up,but there`s nothing to say I can or can`t ride the bike.Probably best not go out on bike anyway seeing the weather forcast for the rest of the week….Thanks again.

    Maybe heavy rain will cover up your lack of disc?

    Lets face it.. if the weathers gonna be crap, you’re hardly likely to see a traffic warder or bobby-on-the-beat!

    just dont stop………..

    if they check on the computer it will come up as taxed anyway, it’d just be a bored copper if he wanted to nick you for failure to display, and as you’ve already reported it youd get off on it anyway if you took it to court.
