The reason there are so many people crashing the website is.
1, when you sell a vehicle the VED stops dead and you get a refund,
2, when you purchase a vehicle it will come with no VED.
So,,, instead of 10 cars being sold second hand all with VED remaining all ten cars need to be issued a new road fund and all ten may need refunds, so now you have 20 transaction for the sake of actually none if all the sold cars had already got a road fund.
They have created a problem that was not there on 30th September. this will not be a money saving event for DVLA it will compound and cause a further costing.
The amount of vehicles without road fund or insurance will go through the roof and I will explain below how you will no longer need to tax or insure your vehicle and pretty much be 99% sure of not getting found out unless you have an accident.
Scenario.
You have a red Landrover Discovery 2006, Red, Reg AT06 LRD
When you are driving around you spot another vehicle exact spec as yours, note its registration plate.
Go North Weald market or similar and get a set of plates made with the spotted vehicles reg for 30 odd quid.
put on your own vehicle and you now have a ANPR busting legal car and a massive saving of maybe 500+ quid to spend on air polluting liquid.
As said in previous postings, put it on the fuel, have a Tax disc in your window, and one for the MOT and Insurance, yes they can be faked but they can be seen and maybe interrogated.
Yes in the old days they called it “ringing” and its does go on but this new move brings it so much more easily into the realms of anyone can do.
Just a thought.
Ps, no I do not own a Landrover.
