Without rego stickers, what do people do when going interstate?

Mikee, thanks for the heads up, will do the same, saves hassles in the long run.

I just checked the SA gov website and it says that SA police can do an immediate online check of the rego of any Australian vehicle from any state. It also says that any Australian police force (in any state or territory) can check the registration of any SA vehicle. Not sure why the SA paper said the Vic cops had a field day booking Crow Eaters, but I do know you shouldn't believe everything you read in the papers!!!

WA havent had them for a fair while and now QLD dont either The cops can run a check on cars from nay State so dont worry

Hi Mike

Not sure about the field day with Victoian Police, as we have been stikerless for a good number of years now. If drivers were getting booked, were their vehicles registered.?

I can not comment about any other state, but there in SA Zthere is a free app called Ezy Reg that gives you instant details of any vehicle registered here in SA.

You still get the renewal slip, just as we always have and having that in the car does not prove a thing, as you still have to re register just as the the past.

I would love to hear the story from someone in the Victorian Police on their side of the story.


Cheers

Mate just drive the vehicle. They have all the info at their fingertips.

The app QLD rego is free.

Most states have them, use it should you have an accident and want to check the vehicle is registered.

The app will provide rego, vehicle, vin, type of rego and expiry date. It will not give you the owners name.

With Western Australia being the first to do away with the stickers (December 2009), I paid our caravan rego in April 2009 when due August to get the sticker before we left as I had done before. They said the stickers weren't printed, and they may not print them as they were being phased out. The only advice they could give was to take a copy of the rego with us. With the expired sticker still in place as I didn't remove it while away, we were never asked.

You are covering all bases Mikee taking copies. As said, they can check.

As I live in SA, I would just direct the officer to Ezyreg, an online internet service. Anyone can search a rego number for currency without any other personal details being disclosed.

In fact, I wouldn't mind betting on all State Police Forces being accessible from their cars across all States & Territories.

That's a story from September 2012. We went through a rego check in the NT in 2012 with no rego sticker. What they did was look up our vehicles, car and van, using a laptop. Not a problem.

Ah Mikee

Off topic I know, but I can't imagine many of the so-called reportedly 'feral' Crows' supporters would have gone to see the Hawks v Swans.

The computerised cameras can check all states rego immediately. Secondly, if the cops call in your rego by radio the operator can give rego, license, points, criminal history etc details immediately.

I have found it a real bonus not requiring the sticker - I can move my plates between vehicles (only one is registered) as necessary and drive with impunity. I only drive one vehicle at a time - why should the state government charge me two lots of rego when I only need one?

I should point out that the two vehicles are identical except in colour.

I have registered with D.O.T in WA and have downloaded their Gov App
on my IPad and IPhone plus my laptop. It is a record of all my vehicles and licence info and also sends a text message when payments are due if I forget to check that way I don't have to worry if I am interstate.
