Aghhh! forgot to renew my task disc which ran out on Saturday. Post office closed today and tomorrow so what do i do. Should I renew it on line or wait until Tuesday and go to the P.O. I believe if you renew it on line you can drive round without until it arrives but think that isn't the case if you apply after it's due - can anyone confirm.
Smile though your bank is breaking:)

    I reckon there will be quite a few in the same boat. Just re-new on Tuesday and all should be well.

    Do it either way, the system doesn't update straight away anyway. A friend had a motorbike on the road until late in the month without tax and it still showed as taxed but close to expiry.

    hi.do it online...however..be aware, the 5 day thing only applies if taxed online before midnight, month-end.
    No, I don't think all other drivers are idiots......but some are determined to change my mind.......
