    They interviewed some high up bod in the police on the radio a few weeks back and they said pretty much the same. It is mor likely that they will rely on 'producers' during the transition.

    I have a mate in the PSNI and he says they've been told to take it easy to begin with as many people who will have done their MOT last summer will not be able to find their disc, so for the first few months anyway it's just going to be warnings rather than fines.

    Its nice to see that the PSNI are taking a sensible approach to this especially considering the woefully poor amount of publicity surrounding this issue.
    I still think that the DVA should work on this as I'm sure 90% of the general population here don't have a clue about this.

    I put my bike through MOT today and the guy at the centre said bikers dont need to display the disk.

    He's wrong, bikes have to display it as well which is a right pain in the a55. Hard enough to find a place to display one disc on a bike without drilling new holes for a second :mad:
    The car tax people remind you about the mot disc if you hand them a complete cert :D
