Current licence label not affixed in prescribed manner

[Big Dog]

Most VTNZ have the alloy plate with plasticity slide free for the asking. Some very their free quota but charge for them.
I need to get another one as the plastic fell out somewhere in the last 200km. It has had a crack in the plastic for a while so not a surpise.

The charge is not affixed in the prescribed manner ... not the bike is unregistered. As I understand ... parking wardens have no ability (or inclination even if they had) to check if vehicles have current registration.

They certainly do have the ability Rio check Rego and warrant. Four hundy fine then... Even at 8 a.m.on a Sunday in a semi residential area... fuckers.

If they do a rocky moment for two hundy, what do they do for a four?

this was the old classic motor which had cold start issues. Left it out overnight to see if I had fixed it. Feckers cane round at 8a.m. on a Sunday. Why do traffic wardens come round on a Sunday at 8? Ridiculous

That early a neighbour will have complained. Or initiated proceedings to claim your abandoned bike.

I could understand that if it was always there, or was a rundown shit bag... But It was a classic car that was practically mint, and that was the only time it was left out.
Maybe my old neighbours were just arseholes

Yet again, I have received another $200 fine for again not affixed in prescribed manner... And I just realize when I was looking (LIKE ACTUALLY FOCUSING) on the rego. I saw the reason why I got the fine was because my rego was 23/07/2016. Now that is very weird as I paid $380 on the 15/06/2016 for 12 months. Unless it cost that much to have the bike rego for a month.... So now I am sitting on a $400 rego fine when the post office stuffed up. I still got the original receipt when I did my reo (Thank god I saved it) and pretty much had a look at it and it shows that I paid $380.70 for just a month of rego with a nzta stamp on it. Just to show how unlucky I am... I don't know how to dispute this anymore since it was an error from the post office.

Write in with the whole story , did You put the old label on by mistake? Check with the post shop/VTNZ for correct exp date and get a reprint. On the label it will give You a date and time the label was printed. Keep all the labels and receipts and pass this info on to the infringement review team from AT. Did You have to pay any back rego to bring it up to date? Quote both infringement numbers. Errors are made all the time so just write in with what happened.

Nope, I have looked on the receipt and it show the wrong date. I assumed that when I register the bike, it gets registered for the day I payed for the rego and it starts on that day. Unless I am wrong as I do not know

Rego is calculated from the expiry date of the previous period. So if you have let it lapse for a month and buy 1 months you still wont have any registration. The only way you can avoid this is by putting your rego on hold, but you cant do that retrospectively and you wont be able to use your bike on public roads while its on hold.

Doubt the PO will have made a mistake if the receipt shows the correct amount you paid as its a computerized system.... you tell them how much rego you want, the computer works out the cost and prints the rego. If the rego had expired and you assumed you were paying from the day you renewed it onward, then you will be up for more rego (including the new elapsed period) plus the 2hundy for the fine you got for not having any registration.

Ya best bet is to write a sob story and hope they see the funny side of it.

Continuous licensing means you could be 23 months in arrears before they drop the plate at the end of the 24th.
So yes, worst case you're put 12 months on and still 11 months in arrears. Past experience tells me you can't pay some of your arrears. You must end up with as least 28 days at the end of the transaction.

Had something happen with my car which left me dumbfounded. Drove to a half day AT commuter course run by Pro-Ride, took my wife along and dropped her off to do some shopping. Came out and the car was ticketed as "Current licence label not displayed in proscribed manner". Took me about 15 minutes of looking at my car, the position of the labels on other cars, and much swearing to realise what had happened. It was out of date by several months so read 2016 instead of 2017. But, I'd renewed it only a few months ago hadn't I?

Checked the RTA receipt and yes, I had renewed it. What I'd done was take the old licence label out of the window envelope, put it down on the seat beside the new label, pick it up again and insert it back into the window envelope and must've thrown away the new label.

Wrote to AT explaining what I'd done, included copies of the original receipt, the receipt ($4) for a replacement label and the actual replacement label. They cancelled the ticket.

Now, I can imaging doing that on the bike where I'd sit on the garage floor changing the label. But on the bloody car! Gotta be an old age thing!
