if the cars not registered how will they know where to send the fine:^O

The reg has my address when I paid the stamp duty

at one time in SA they used to allow 24HR's grace on this. i'm not sure its still the case though.

I do hope so, ill have to pay the fees as my daughter hardly works as she does hours and hours at uni and then have to voluntary hours a week.  I have NO idea how young kids do uni to get a good job when they don't live at home.  Oh I wont start on uni, the thousands of debt the get into before they get a job and then have to pay a tutor as the lectures there have no idea how to educate them grrrr

Hi we live in Adelaide.  She never got picked up for speeding but hubby said every intersection red light cameras can  pick up unregistered cars even if its a day late.  What is the CTP?  This was only tonight I remembered and daughter told us she drove all day in her car for uni work

CTP is compulsory third party insurance (green slip)  You need to pay that to be able to register your vehicle.

Did you read the link Freddie posted?

Detecting unregistered vehicles, trailers or motor bikes

Traffic cameras are used to detect unregistered vehicles, trailers or motor bikes to ensure that everyone contributes towards ongoing road maintenance and upgrades and has compulsory third party insurance – all funded when paying your registration fee.

If you bought the car and the car is in your name then it was you that should get the fine because it was unregistered.

Your daughter was only driving your car.  How was she to know that it was unregistered?  I don't think she has anything to worry about.  In WA new drivers have a limited number of demerit points before they lose their P plates.  For drivers in their first year they lose their licence with only 4 points and in the second year it is 8.  I don't know about other states.

Well, it will be good if they have at least one days grace in SA.

How does your daughter know the red light camera snapped her and recorded an expired rego/stamp duty? Don't you have to wait until you get a notice in the mail to find that out?

no we don't have a green slip.  we just pay for both together with a renewal bill which I should of got.

Yes ill get the bill well ill be paying for it anyway.  I did tell her it will expire in June but very easy to forget when they dam don't send a notice out!!

My daughter doesn't know if it flashed her as it was daylight.  But hubby said they have installed it in all the red light cameras to pick up unregistered cars and she went through quite a few today:-(
