Gday, honestly how dumb is the current system of state-by-state licencing and registration? Just found out last night that after living in a different state for only 3 months you need to change your licence over and re-register your car. This involves buying new rego, new plates, getting a mechanic to inspect the car and applying for a refund for any outstanding rego from the previous state!

Then when you move back you have to go through the whole drama again!

With the ever increasing numbers of people travelling interstate for work surely it is just a waste of everybody's time, money and effort to continue with the current system. Each motor reg place in the country can be connected with internet now. It would make a lot more sense to have a national system. Or at least make it longer, such as 2 years rather than 3 months.

Anyway my 2c
