Default Vehicle Recognition System

Hey all,

Just a general enquiry after the RMS (RTA or whatever they are today) were no help...we are looking at buying another ute for our business.

The person we are buying the ute from lost his license in this particular vehicle several months ago. He warned me about this and informed me that the vehicle may be a target to Police due to his losing his license in this particular vehicle.

I believe the Police Vehicle Recognition System in the HWP cars has all this on record and pulls over vehicle with known number plates due to unlicensed drivers, unregistered vehicles etc etc

Does anyone know if I purchased this vehicle will it still be a "known vehicle", or after rego transfer does it become clear.

Nothing to hide but don't really want to be a target and get pulled over every time I pass a cop car...

Cheers

it will be a "known" for a while and may attract some attention for a short period but when word gets out you will be fine......police talk to each other

Get the seller to cancel the rego and deduct the rebate from the price then re-register with new plates, problem solved.

Cheers, thanks guys...the guy is keen to sell obviously so getting a good price...

Will definitely change the plates after buying...just didn't want to be hounded by every passing cop car thinking im a suspended driver.
