And if the rego lapses he could end up having to get new number-plates.![]()

'round this way, he'd have to never drive on the gorge. The new speed camera is apparently a plate scanner too.
(Camera doesn't care about the fake "sticker" of course, just sees the plate and looks it up.)
Would be seriously annoying to always have to go the long way.
They have cameras like that anywhere near him?
Measure once, cut twice. Practice makes perfect.
Yes, he would have to put his rego on hold to avoid the vehicle being de-registered which would add to the legal problems
Good on him for doing it but unless these people had those unsavory files somewhere where you can't avoid seeing it, it's a breach of ethics, which they are quite big on in the IT industry.
This altering the rego label in really not a good idea. As previously stated rego plates expire after a time if not on hold. It may pass a casual visual inspection, maybe, but not if a data base is searched if stopped by the cops for any reason. Insurance, forget it. Not only will he get the usual "using an unregistered" ticket he is in the gun for a fraud charge. "altering a document to gain an advantage" That's Crimes Act, punishable with a little bit more the wet bus ticket slap.
These labels have an issue date ( and time) on them on the right hand side, and a bar code for scanning. Very hard to mess with them successfully. Why, because its Government tax and revenue. Those departments have astounding search and seizure powers available to them and the penalties are risk prohibitively harsh.
Its not if but when he gets his arse kicked.
Surely this is THE reason why photoshop was invented?

He could always register it as a tractor? or has that loop hole been covered?![]()
I may be slow at getting things but..... no wait I'm just slow.
Well and truly mate.
As pointed out having a false sticker is going to carry some heavy shit compered to just not being registered.
Personally I wouldn't worry about fines and such because they amount to fuck all anyway,but the possible insurance issues would be a major problem to anybody that was self employed.
Having two passports,I have a friend that is wanted in NZ but he has an NZ passport in his legal name,plus an Australian one in his mothers maiden name so he travels in and out of NZ on the Aussie one,but I do believe that loop hole is going to slam shut very soon,,,,,,so get in while you can I guess.
Short term 'solution'.
Rego stickers are almost obsolete over here.
Plate Scanners do the job now.
Won't be too long over there.
Every time I've been pulled over my numbers have been run through the computer in the plod car anyway.
This would only make matters much worse.
