Displaying tax discs ... how does the law stand??
A question to our member law enforcers.

How does the law stand in displaying your tax disc?

Some debate about this at Foxes last night. I'm currently carrying mine with me whenever I ride the MultiStrada as I simply haven't bought a decent holder to fix it to the bike.

Mrs Everton's RS250 has no good place to fix a licence holder unless I bodge up a bracket so she is carrying hers as well.

Advice please.

The fine is for "failure to display" BUT in my experience you simply get reported to the DVLA who then check whether you have a valid tax disc and will take it no further if you do.

I do have mine on the bike though...

How does the law stand?

Usually with their feet at ten-to-two, hands clasped behind their back and bending slightly at the knees.

I've not carried one for years, last time I got a pull I had to show it at the station as part of the 'producer'. I'd be interested to hear Rushjob's opinion though ?
