Stopped with no rego. Police taking plates?

[Mom]

True the above.Never had insurance,tried when I was sixteen to insure my gsx 1100 them that didn't laugh/show me the door just pointed to the biggest number at the bottom of the page.Never bothered asking again and 30 years/many bikes later never needed it,touch wood won't either.The money saved would have bought many bikes.
RE rege I'll pay what is fair but with 2 bikes over 1000cc they can go fuc... themselves,catch me.Rego on hold/current WOF at least 6 months a year.

Where were you when we were protesting the levy increases? We could have done with your support back then LOL

I am a 3rd Party Insurance Supporter. Take the risk yourself by all means, but cover the "other" party for the damage apportioned to you by their insurance company.

Either that, or pay the $$ down at the court house and declare bankruptcy. Think 8 years out of your life in regards to any kind of borrowings once you do.

Is that why I got storked and stopped by the Ginga Cop today. Took him forever to decide to stop me. Had to ride legal for ages and slow pass cars :banghead: What a pain. Too bad my Reg is up to date

No, this is another case of money grubbing company attempting to contract out of the law under hopes that people without clue won't push back.

In an oops indicent, the insurance company must prove beyond all reasonable doubt that the bike being un-WoFed or un-regoed contributed DIRECTLY to the accident.

Say your WoF was out 1 day, and you got rear ended by someone while stopped at the lights, that wouldn't invalidate your insurance claim.

If you binned it while your WoF was out a day upon inspection their inspector finds the rear tyre bald, then you have something to worry about.

There are laws in place to stop insurance companies from slithering out of their obligations on technicalities. Educate yourself.

If you bin it and the inspector finds a bald tyre then you have no insurance WoF or no WoF

If you get caught plate swapping its a go to court offence, not an instant fine.

If you can't pay for the fine and you can't pay for the rego well you are going to get stopped some time.

Sorry but this is NOT another case of a money grubbing company doing anything other than offering a considerable discount if "I wanted" to take advantage of it.

Maybe you buy insurance without reading the fine print and taking advantage of the different plans on offer,,,but I certainly don't.
