Drivers need to act in certain circumstances
The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency has issued a number plate update where motorists must ask in any of three circumstances. The government department issues driving licences and, essentially, keeps tabs on UK drivers, among other things.
In a new post on X, formerly Twitter, DVLA shared a list of "acceptable" documents people can use to prove they can use their registration number if they need to get a new number plate. This would be the case if your number plate was lost, damaged or stolen, if you are importing a car to the UK, or if you've purchased a personalised registration number.
The post reads: "Number plate lost, stolen or damaged? Registered number plate suppliers will ask for identity documents and proof you can use the registration number." You can find a registered number plate supplier here, and a list of acceptable documents here Anyone found to be driving without a valid number plate, or with one that is broken to the point that its characters are not clearly visible and readable, is likely to be stopped by the police. Gov.uk guidance adds: "You could be fined up to £1,000 and your vehicle will fail its MOT test if you drive with incorrectly displayed number plates."
