Filling blank space where tax disc once was

[Pid_16V]

...so since year dot, weve all been driving around with an illegal obstruction in our windscreens but because it was to pay for government tax's it was "overlooked" unless it wasn't "displayed" as it was/is illegal to not have your disk displayed. NOW! it's going to be ILLEGAL!!! Well FM....:beer:

It isn't tax, it was not against the MOT regulations, there are regulations governing where the disc MUST be displayed and the MOT wording is "obstructing the driver's view".

You can take a deep breath now.

You can take a deep breath now. I love a conspiracy, but there isn't one here I'm afraid.

Not displayed one in my capri for years (in the armrest), last on i had on a bike was 1998 they are all 'as delivered' unripped from the square. Police were happy with the bike situation as id had 2 nicked when at uni so kept them in my pocket.

I've never bothered with them on a bike, the holders just fill with rain water anyway and destroy the disc.
