Unregisterd Cars ?

[overherebc]

What is the story on the latest "crack-down" on unregistered cars, on the news this morning ?

[mogandave]

Cars are being confiscated and the owner is given 30 days to clean the paper or the car is sold at auction.

Don't suppose you have a link to this story, Thai or English?

I take it this is related to import cars where the tax etc has not been--finalised-- to ensure the car is 100% import legal.

Reason I'm asking is that some of my Thai friends have said that if you don't pay the road tax for a few years and even if the car is off the road and not used you will be fined.

Find that a bit hard to believe.

How do you get stopped if the car is "...off the road and not used...?"

That's what I was trying to tell them but, you can tell them a mile away but you can't tell them anything close up.

Only for imports according to my understanding

What your friends mean is car confiscated not you fined as in the Ferrari yesterday so they are correct.
