Clown Forums Junkie Location: Ballarat, Vic. Registered: September 2002	Re: defect notice Fri, 23 September 2005 18:22 point 3 is wrong, its under permit conditions after the 7 days in victoria. Point 6 is also wrong, i was told i could drive the car whenever i wanted aslong as i changed tyres, i could even drive car in wet if i changed tyres. I got defected a few months back for having all 4 tyres bald (which was in correct the back tyres were perfectly legal (just) and the front tyres, well they were down on the insides). I copped a 170$ fine for "driving a car that failed to comply with rwc requirements", although i didn't need a RWC just had to put legal tyres on. Borrow a mates rims and went into clear it to find out that there was no record of it on the system. filthman wrote on Fri, 23 September 2005 04:09 I'm not sure if the laws regarding this are aimilar in Vic to Tassie, but I can tell you in Vic: 1: If you are given the copy of the notice your vehicle is defected. 2: The police DO NOT have to put the sticker on - its their discretion. The sticker doesn't defferenciate between a major and minor notice. 3: (In Vic) the maximum time by law to repair the vehicle while driving it is 7 days. This means that if you haven't cleared the notice in the 7 days, then you must tow the vehicle. 4: You have 28 days to clear the notice, after which time your suspension WILL BE suspended. 5: The is no fine attached to the defect notice. However if your car is really bad (usually = belts visible on tyres, etc) then they may give you a fine for using an unsafe vehicle. 6. You can only use the vehicle (during the 7 days) for the purpose of getting it repaired. If caught cruising on a Saturday night you can be fined for using vehicle in breach of minor / major defect notice. 7. Its the police discretion as to if you have to get a R.W.C. This is usually dictated by the general condition and age of the vehicle, and weather the driver is a smart ass. 8. VicRoads are the only authorised body who can remove the sticker from the screen. A penalty applies if you remove it yourself. Hope that helps. Just remember this applies to Victoria. [Report message to a moderator]
