I was in my pub tonight and someone there was talking about how he supplies non-legit tax discs for cars.
It seems that what happens is this. A tax disc is dated for approx 12 months after the date it is issued. When the present date moves into the next month the stock of tax discs which are valid for 11 months become invalid.
It seems that matey gets these through some back door.
The strangest thing is that he was strenuously maintaining that even if a policeman wanted to give a car with such a tax disc a thorough check then the tax disc would stand up to any such checking.
I can't see how thois could be so. Presumably the DVLA have the tax disc's serial number logged against the car it was issued to. He says his dodgy discs can pass through such a check.
Seems odd to me. Even odder is that such surplus tax discs are, allegedly, simply not accounted for by some internal checks.
Surely this man is wrong. Any views?
