When Does It Become Unlawful To Drive A Car Without A Registered Plate Number by zheroes(m): 10:44am On Feb 04, 2017 |
Please I need very informed ideas on this A friend was driving one of the cars he imported to the parking lot when he was apprehended by some police men at a checking point, and they asked why isn't the car registered so he said its for sale. Then they asked for his dealer plate number and he said its in process which is true. The next thing they said was that they will take the car to the station. An arguement ensued. I will leave the story here. At what point does it become unlawful to drive a car unregistered? Must someone have a dealer plate number before he can sell a car? |

3 to 6 months maximum from the day the car was purchased. This gives enough room for you to have processed all the necessary papers required. For car dealers, 3 months from the day it was cleared from the sea port. If you have to drive it around town, you must get a dealer plate number as required by law if not, kindly "jejely"parked it in your sales car garage. 35 Likes 3 Shares |

I think you have three months after clearing the car but your friend telling them that it is for sale automatically put you on their net because you are meant to have a dealers plate to drive the car from one point to another. My option though 1 Like |

nigerian police are lawless and unintelligent. they have many ways to find out if the car is truly his or not but they won't do it, rather they will intimidate him to bring money. a policeman told me my road worthiness is expired in jan and for that he will park the car. i simply told him oga u are a stupid man. 2 Likes |

The police are right in their questioning, because such cars can be use to commit crime and can never be traced. But is just the way they go about it is very wrong and illegal, my aunty and i have been detained in a police station for two hours for the same reason, until we were able to bribe ourself out. I think all they want is to intimidate you so that you will bribe them. 1 Like |

I don't know about Nigeria, but I know in Canada, you can't drive an unregistered car. Even if you are moving the car for the purpose of exporting it, you need a temporary license known as transit license. I'm sure the same goes for most organized society. But anything goes in Nigeria 5 Likes |
