Question

I saw a certain local MP getting into an untaxed car last week, (wish I'd have had my camera) saw the car again yesterday, tax disc still not in date [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Anyone know the number / site you can report them on?, can't find any mention on the DVLA site.

I asked this question a while ago on 5ive-0.com and was told to fill a form in. Waste of time I filled 2 in, nothing done. I told a local Plod he was not interested, nothing he could do. I told him where the car was, the route it took every day. Its still running around so I gave up.

Call the police and say there may have been a gun on the seat. That'll get it the attention it deserves ...or call The Sun newspaper

...tell them it regularly exceeds the speed limit along a particular (named) stretch of road. That'll get their attention.

Thumbs up

There was defo a place on the DVLA web site, which you could fill in a form and they send one of their inspectors out to check, so long as you can give them a place the car can be seen regularly.

if it's parked near a town center tell a traffic warden - they're a bit more likely to bother than the plod... after all they're not out catching rapists and granny bashers.


Actually, neither are the plod!
