Those who needs stickers to remind them of registration need to embrace the new technological age. I complain to every business that still sends me paper when they could have sent a pdf by email. So, thanks pollies for being clever for a change!

Personally I like to know when my rego is due and I check that by looking at my sticker, maybe a small sticker with a renewal date but no year that could stay permanently on the car would help.

And there is no cost reduction for the consumer it just makes more money for the states, if you look at the WA website it even addresses this.

What I want is a national car rego scheme, we move every 2-3 years because of my husbands job and each time we have to change our license and change the cars to another state. It’s annoying, time consuming and confusing as every state has different ways of working out how much you pay and what checks need to be made before you do it. If the states are so worried about losing $ though this the $ could still be allocated to the appropriate state though simply checking the address without having to go through all the rigmarole of changing it over.

You all just blaming the gov because of your laziness. Most of the whining is about things when the stickers are still used. Grow up and take responsibility for yourselves. Its time.
