HOW TO DETECT FAKE CAR DOCUMENTS (1)

As an experienced person who has been dealing with vehicle documents for long, I can detect a fake without any hassle.

I must confess, charlatans who peddle fake car papers have upped their ante in recent times due to advancing technologies. Nevertheless a fake will always be an imitation of the original. One of my favourite quotes is "the original never knew his worth until the fake showed up."

FACTORS TO CONSIDER

- VALIDATION WEBSITES: The best way to detect a fake document is to verify it online. Some notable websites are:

Vehicle Licence - verify.autoreg.ng

https://nvis.frsc.gov.ng/numberplateverification

Insurance - www.askniid.org

- COLOURED PHOTOCOPY: With the advent of the modern photocopier, con men have used the opportunity to make clones of the original copy. They print the respective information over the duplicates. However some caper papers have embedded security features that the fakes can't match. Important things to note here are the font size, over all layout, the sharpness and attached nylon gum(if any - check the perfection of the cut).

Loujay:


Please how can I verify my registration on the verify.autoreg.ng website or create a profile for that purpose? I have difficulty logging into the website as it requires username and password yet can't allow me to create one. Please help a brother. Thank you.

Please house, I need an explanation. A friend of mine helped with my car registration in Lagos. I got insurance sms that it has been registered. All the papers were sent to me. But I have not been able to verify it online myself. I tried autoreg and lsmaav portals, but the websites are not ON or functioning. I managed to chat up a representative from autoreg who responded that the registration is valid. The only information I got from FRSC portal is that the plate number is valid, but yet to be assigned. My friend said it's on autoreg portal which is not accessible. It has been 5 working days now since the car registration took place. I do not live in Lagos.
Please how long will it take for my car registration to appear on FRSC portal and how can I avoid been harassed on the road by VIO and FRSC officials if they check my vehicle plate number online, b4 it appears on their portal?

mimini:


Please, someone should kindly answer this question. I am seriously in need of an answer. Thank you.

FACTS ABOUT VEHICLE LICENCE

A vehicle licence is issued by a motor registration authority in a jurisdiction in respect of a particular motor vehicle.

A current licence is required for a motor vehicle to be legally permitted to be used or kept on a public road in the jurisdiction.

Usually a licence is valid for one year and an annual licence fee is payable before a new one is issued.

A vehicle licence may be a paper document to be kept in the vehicle at all times or in the form of an adhesive sticker to be affixed or displayed on the windshield of the vehicle.

A valid vehicle licence in addition to those of roadworthiness certification and auto-insurance is required to permit a motorist use a public road in a jurisdiction.

However unlike the roadworthiness certification and auto-insurance, the vehicle licence is renewable annually and debts will be accumulated for non-renewal.

What is a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)?


The car's vehicle identification number (VIN) is the identifying code for a SPECIFIC automobile. The VIN serves as the car's fingerprint, as no two vehicles in operation have the same VIN. A VIN is composed of 17 characters (digits and capital letters) that act as a unique identifier for the vehicle. A VIN displays the car's unique features, specifications and manufacturer. The VIN can be used to track recalls, registrations, warranty claims, thefts and insurance coverage.
