Makes sense . Nxwm serious obsession with inter working everything.

To be honest, NX's interworking seems a lot better than the likes of Arriva, from what I've read on here & Facebook!

Same Here Mate also it'll be the only example of this kind :)

Having checked VOSA, the 6 delivered yesterday are already taxed.

[WB]

From what I can tell the new buses are taxed as soon as they are registered and tax discs are sent to the new owner within 8 days of delivery.
All the new buses have a sheet printed out with the owner details, chassis number and the taxation class etc..

584 just came into Dudley with a bus full of drivers on route learning duties (certainly was different to see a west bromwich b6!)

@wb I'm willing to bet I know (without doing a vehicle enquiry at work) who dvla have down as the owner)

I presume you didn't see this story then

If you are checking the ownership of vehicles on Dudley MBC computers you are doing exactly what Mr Curl was doing. Very naughty!

We've only had to check (in my department) once and it was a good reason related to the traffic management act, and I wouldn't actually do it for my own use. What I meant was that I could probably guess based of that prior legitimate business dvla search (plus a search that was sent to my department accidentally which I had to forward to the correct department).

[the trainbasher]

And that I can assure you that I would NEVER do DVLA searches for private purposes using council equipment/powers/etc.

All searches are liable for audit (both internal and DVLA - I should know as I had to pull the data from the system for the auditors) so I couldn't fudge it even if I wanted to which I wouldn't.

And it's all computer driven anyway, all I have to do is wait for the response to come back so I can send any notice to owners.
