My tax ran out at the end of September so mine no longer has it in.

Mind you, you wouldn't have seen it, it's been in the garage for a WEEK as the wing mirror glass needs replacing. A WEEK! I hate Stoneacre!

Christ, don't tell me they let you drive! Can you post us a daily plan of where you are hong to be driving - just in the interests of public safety. You have such a disregard for commonly accepted standards that I assume you drive through red lights saying, "I think you'll find I know far more about road safety than the transport planners do."

, "I think you'll find I know far more about road safety than the transport planners do."

I know I know more than the numpty planners that decided to put those stupid traffic lights in on the A1 roundabout at Warmsworth :)

I do go through red lights. You won't catch me waiting at a pelican crossing for the lights to go green when it is obvious the pedestrians have safely crossed the road. Also if it is late at night on a main road if the lights are red for a minor road leading to a factory or such like that is obviously closed I'll quite happily go through them. I am such a good driver that I have never been caught once and I've done it thousands of times. I also often turn left or right in the town centre when it is only for buses or taxis. I refuse to bow to discrimination and drive an extra half a mile to get to the same destination. I'm doing my bit for the environment and saving a bit of petrol money.

Try it some of the bigger city's you'll lose your licence in 20 minutes but I suppose you know exactly where every yellow box camera, bus lane camera, illegal turn camera, traffic light camera is situated in every city, and of course which ones are live ...........  and no they are not all obvious or marked

Exactly, do that where I live and you'll be racking up the fines - buggers they are.

I picked a new/old car up on 30th September with no tax disc on it, also instead of sending the little green slip off to DVLA you take the new forms to the post office, register your car there and pay your tax. Its awful, you hand over money and walk out with nothing, no tax disc, no ownership papers, just down cash wise, its like walking out of william hills on grand national day.
