Currently, NSW legislation sets out requirements for vehicles to be registered, and requires that registration labels be provided by Roads and Maritime Services (replacing Roads and Traffic Authority) and displayed on a vehicle. There is potential to substantially reduce costs for business and the community by removing the need for registration labels for the 5.9 million light vehicles registered in NSW.

^ Its now 2012 so whats happened!
The above link is from the RTA regarding a review to remove the need to display a label.
Came across this by accident (Tho sure had heard about it somewhere) whilst trying to find out whether the roll type holder used by many bikers is actually ilegal.
Bongo mentioned he was pulled over and informed that only the rectangle holder can be used. But I cant find anything that states this?
Does anyone know where I can find this info, or even if any label is now needed ? _________________ www.ratscafe.org

Those tube ones have been made illegal in Qld
They have talked about getting rid of the labels altogether
Good idea i think they are not needed _________________

from the RTA
Labels
Registration labels
You will be provided with a new registration label each time you establish or renew your vehicle registration.
The label should be stuck on the inside of the lower-left portion of the front windscreen or on a fixed glass panel on the left-hand side of your vehicle.
For caravans and other trailers with a rear facing window, the label may be stuck on the inside of that window in a position as close as possible to the number plate. Hinged windows displaying a rego label must be closed while the vehicle is being towed.
For all other vehicles, the label should be affixed on or adjacent to the vehicle's rear number plate without obscuring the vehicle's number plate characters.
Suitable label holders may be purchased from most automotive retail suppliers. Please note that the holder should not obscure the label in any way.

As of July 2011 they did away with registration labels in SA, the police can get all the info they need within seconds via computer. _________________ Cheers,

Certainly seems logical to me, but then I guess the words logic and government should never be used in the same sentence. _________________ Cheers,

I've got a mate who's gunna be real pissed off if they bring this into effect in Victoria.
For years he's been running his Harley with the rego label purposely not on the bike.
When he gets pulled up by a plod he haggles with them about the speed or whatever he was pulled up for then suggests that the hit him for not dispaying a rego label rather than the speeding ticket.
The fine is only minimal compared to a speeding fine or whatever else and carries no demerit points here (or so he says).
So now what's he gunna do
Victoria has several cars running around now (could be all of them for all I know) that can scan 15 rego plates per second and colate the info from them as to weather the car is registered or the owner has outstanding fines owing.
As they pump it in the ads on the radio, the first thing you will know about it is when they are pulling you up 30 seconds later.
Ditch the label. It's not nessesary any more. |

The issue with the boys in blue is that they can use minnor crap to wind you up .
There doesnt seem to be reason for claiming they are illegal.
it hasnt any thing to do with wheather they do the job or not .
Its a tool they will use if they want clobber you _________________ Journey in Life, is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting '..holy sh*t ....what a ride!'

Before they were banned up here a guy was booked for using one and the transport Guys said it was legal so he took it to court and the magistrate said if the police officer said it was not legal it was not legal
they now have been banned proper
I was pulled over for a breath test on my mates Harley and the copper told me to tell him to change his ASAP _________________

looking through as much imformation that I can fine. The description regarding placement of the label is very limited.
The most I could find . Displayed correctly so that no imformation is obscured and can be read from outside the verlical.
How the roll dosent fit that description is hard to understand. which i think supports my theory any complaints regarding them is not about the label holder and more about the Constable and the person they have stopped. _________________ Journey in Life, is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting '..holy sh*t ....what a ride!'

Churchy looking at all the paper work and admendments to legislation in this document this is going to be buried for some time. _________________ Journey in Life, is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting '..holy sh*t ....what a ride!'
