Just wanted a few opinions and if its happened to anyone else before i act on it.
I received a defect notice last week in regards to worn tyres. I brought new tyres and had them changed yesterday.
Today is my last day of the notice so i took the car to vicroads as specified on the letter and from the police at the time so
i can get it checked and removed. After having the vehicle inspected the vicroads inspector proceeded inside again so they can clear the defect.
As they walked in they realised the registration number on the notice was incorrect, so they advised me to go and see the officer that issued the defect get him to issue a new one then bring it back. By the way i was caught an hour away from home, and it was hard enough,cancelled jobs to organise everything, but i deserved it for letting the tyres go. I dont think i should be inconvenienced any more though after i have done the right thing
After getting upset with them and stating how i felt i explained that i obviously dont have a defect notice cause they have the wrong number plate told them ill remove it myself and left.
Now i havnt removed it and im thinking of calling the police and explain about the mistake.Im not shaw if i should though cause that could lead to them getting the correct details and making me do all the above.
Thanks
