VED

[eggsarascal]

Taxed my van yesterday and it's showing untaxed on the Gov website, money has gone out of my bank and I've got the Ref number. Looking into it it can take up to 5 days to update on the system, some point having an automated system!

 

I wonder if the police or ANPR use the same system to check?

It can take "up to five working days for the records to update" according to the GOV.UK website.

That's why I said that above.

 

My question is, do the police and cameras use the same information to check.

Sorry. I was obviously having a brain fart.

Probably. But I'm sure that they wait for "up to 5 working days" before taking any action regarding suspected VED abnormalities.

I wouldn't normally be bothered about it but I've got a job in Walsall tomorrow, nearly 40 miles down the M6.

 

I know it's legit and I have the Ref number but sitting in the back of a police car while they check it isn't very appealing.

Chances of you even seeing a police car are slim, being stopped by one is very unlikely.

I was pulled up earlier in the year after I had just  taxed it a couple days earlier. Flashed up on his anpr as not being paid but when he checked his other records that showed as paid and I was sent on my way

"Just a minute sir, your vehicle smells of drugs" is the real worry.
