No more rego stickers in vic

[Winnie]

I wonder how many people are going 2 get done driving a mates car that has ran out of rego, at least with the labels you could quickly see that it had rego before you jumped in some other car that you may need 2 drive, now you would have no idea unless you asked to see the rego papers and just because someone rights a number on the papers doesn't mean its registered.

I wonder how you would go in court trying to get out of it

Copied this from the link Andy posted

What happens if I am driving someone else’s car and I don’t know that it is not registered?
Driving an unregistered vehicle is an offence. Whenever you drive a vehicle it is your responsiblity to ensure it is registered. This will remain the case when registration stickers are removed.
You will be able to check any vehicle’s registration by entering the registration plate details online at vre.vicroads.vic.gov.au or by calling VicRoads on 13 1171.

What a pain in the arse if they expect us to check before driving any car. Apparently there is a mobile app you can use to quickly check.

The fun with the online rego checkers is finding a car on a local fb buy swap sell page with the rego plate showing. Check when the rego is due, then comment on the page asking of its registered.

With the Android rego app (nt) I can check anyone's rego, then set a reminder to tell when it's due. Didn't sit well with one of my coworkers when I told him his rego was due.

I pay monthly.

That would make things easier, they offer 6 months and 12 months down here, but if you pay 6 monthly it works out dearer over the 12 months!
