318Touring 40 Report post Posted January 29, 2007 (edited) Well....tell us more......who sent it and what did it say ? The good folks at LTNZ, which says that The Transport Act 1986 indicates that only authorised registration plates can be affixed to a vehicle, and to use items that can be mistaken for an authorised plate is an offense. What is interesting is the answer to question to what is an authorised registration plate as the Act doesn't describe the manner of how an authorised plate is to be produced.

What is interesting is the answer to question to what is an authorised registration plate as the Act doesn't describe the manner of how an authorised plate is to be produced. Right then, Ive had my legal team (wife) look it over and yes it is an offence. All the statutes are on the web which is handy.See here.... Transport (Vehicle and Driver Registration and Licensing) Act 1986 Part 1 Registration and licensing of motor vehicles (s 4 to s [36A) Licences for motor vehicles 17 Unauthorised, deceptive, or obscured registration plates or unauthorised licence .... (e)Uses any motor vehicle which has affixed to it any registration plate or licence which is not authorised by or under this Act to be affixed to that vehicle or any other item which in either case is likely to be mistaken for any authorised registration plate or licence; or The only way to have a legal plate is for it to be authorised by the registrar, or by someone who is authorised by the registrar.

318Touring 40 Report post Posted January 29, 2007 Bugger ! Exactly as I thought. As a precaution, keep your NZ produced plates at ALL times in the car, just in case..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E30stz 0 Report post Posted January 29, 2007 I pay my $182.22 registration instead of actual $182.20, my 2 cents pays for diversion in this case. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
