License Plates No Longer Necessary...

Postby New_SPECIES » December 17th, 2013, 9:06 pm

On a number of occasions vehicles can be seen on our nation's roads,
without any License Plates or any displayed Authorization from the License Office.


It's about time they get a "Light Up".

You serious about that statement?
Do you know anything about the Laws of this country?

BTW... all vehicles were heading in a south direction... so they would have passed the Wrightson Road license office already..

This is the issue that blind eyes fall upon!

Men forced to tow vehicles without plates while some do what they want!

I do know the law and that's it, when I brought my car, i was questioned how come I have d plates as an individual, and was told, not to borrow or rent plates. Insurance on the chassis number is good enough. Just don't be driving to Mayaro and toco. It's just to get the car to LO

Yup.
My sister imported a March (against my will) and drove it home like a boss.
Then got ins on the car itself to get to LO.
She was waiting on PDA plates nah (Also against my will)
Doesn't matter though, ppl use fake plates to commit crimes as they're easily accessible anyway.

Based on this report below... one of the charges the man faced was for Driving an Un-Registered Vehicle...
I know for a fact that without any sort of plates a vehicle MUST BE towed!

Motorist fined for switching plates
By Nikita Braxton-Benjamin South Bureau

Story Created: Oct 17, 2010 at 11:47 PM ECT
Story Updated: Oct 17, 2010 at 11:47 PM ECT

DINESH PERSAD was unable to pay the money needed to license his car, so he took the licence plates from another car so he could drive to work.
He faced three charges before San Fernando Traffic Court Magistrate Nizam Khan on Friday.
Persad, 25, of New Grant, said he was guilty of driving a vehicle with false number plates, using an unregistered vehicle and driving without insurance.

His attorney, Frank Seepersad, said it was a "stupid and unlawful" act.
On the morning of June 29, officer Navindra Sugrim, acting on information, went to Persad's Marabella workplace. Sugrim told Persad he believed the registration number on his (Persad's) vehicle belonged to a Mitsubishi Lancer. Persad's car was a silver Nissan Almera.
Charges that he drove a motor vehicle, registration unknown, while fraudulently using a registration number, that he used the vehicle without a policy of insurance and used a vehicle not registered under the Motor Vehicle and Road Traffic Act were laid.

On Thursday before Magistrate Khan, a statement Persad gave to the police and a certified copy showing the vehicle was registered for a Lancer belonging to Feroz Khan were shown to the court. A receipt for the purchase of the shell of the Almera was also shown to the magistrate.
"He purchased a shell for $30,000 which would have had to be registered. He would have had to pay a fee close to $30,000 as well," Seepersad said.

The attorney said Persad did not have the money and the car would have had to remain several months at home until he had enough funds. He said when Persad started working late hours, travelling to and from his workplace became a problem. He decided to use the identification plates from his friend's car, Seepersad said. His colleague's vehicle was not working and was parked at home.

"He acted extremely foolishly. In his youth and naivety he thought he was making life easier for himself ... Circumstances led him to break the law, (but) it was not a situation where the vehicle was used in other illegal transactions to commit any crimes," Seepersad said.
Persad had a clean record.

Khan fined him $1,500 for fraudulently using the registration plates. Persad had to pay the money immediately or serve four months' hard labour.

A $500 fine was imposed for driving an unregistered vehicle and $1,000 for not having insurance.He faces a six-month jail term should the money not be paid on these two fines.

Khan also disqualified Persad from holding or obtaining a driver's permit for three years. Should no further investigations be necessary on the car, the Almera will be returned to Persad.

Also there is this Law...
Image

Yet to see anything, anywhere stating that a vehicle is ALLOWED to Drive on the nation’s roads WITHOUT a License Plate etc.

If anybody saw this clause anywhere... please enlighten me!



Just because people “Get Away” when they drive without any plates or Authorization from Licensing Office – that doesn’t mean that it is allowed!

Well the man didn't license his vehicle, he committed fraud. By using another plate.

When you move your car from the port, you leave with the customs documents and insurance tied to the chassis of that vehicle. You must have those documents

Yeah but I am still yet to see something in the Laws of T&T where it allows a vehicle to drive on the nation's roads without plates...

And although a lot of people are saying it is ok...
Nobody has shown me that clause in the "Motor Vehicle and Road Traffic Act" giving approval.

My company has one set of D-plates and a trailer we use to transport from the port to our office. Sometimes up to 8 vehicles and we make 4 trips because it really doesn't make sense taking a short cut and getting a vehicle impounded at LO.

Thing is that from the time customs has released the vehicle, all taxes have been paid and it's just a small fee to register at LO. Maybe that's why people get a "bligh", still might be better to tow the vehicle or use a wrecker though.
