canopy Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Is it required or advisable to put stickers on the windshield showing insurance and such? I would rather have the increased viewable area than cover the space with those big opaque squares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When renewing the insurance for the car and 2 motorbikes this year, no sticker was supplied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowflake Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I think that the only sticker you need now is the road tax, everything else can be hidden. It used to be a few more stickers but noone has ever bothered me with the fact that I only have the road tax sticker. When I bought the Yaris 2 years ago, I was told by my friends (Thais) that I had to put more stickers on, I went back to Toyota and they told me that the law was changed and I only needed what they had given me! TIT and it might change with the mood of the BIB that stops you, (How hungry and how thirsty he is). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katabeachbum Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 To get a valid road tax sticker your insurance must be valid. So you only need one sticker visible in windshield, valid road tax. If its positioned in the upper left corner where the wipers dont wipe anyway, its less annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mentioned, the road tax sticker is all that is required now and must be on the left side of the windshield. The compulsory insurance no longer comes with a sticker, just proof of payment form which can be kept in the glove box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkt83100 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 (edited) If its positioned in the upper left corner where the wipers dont wipe anyway, its less annoying.I prefer to stick it behind the rear view mirror, so it does not obstruct the view and it closes the gap between the two sunshades...Reason for edit: Insert a 'not' in the right place Edited June 17, 2009 by hkt83100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately that is not legal now. Years ago when I first moved here, that was the normal place and I always put it there. Then I was stopped at a city check point and the BIB thought I didn't have a tax sticker and informed me to move it to the left side ASAP after he spotted it. But yeah, I rather preferred it there also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
