Road Tax
Are we still permitted a 10 day period of grace on the expiry of the current Road Tax.? My insurers (Saga) don't put insurance details on the Big Brother computer for about 3 days into the new tax period - so I can't get a tax disc without queuing at the Post Office.

If you renew online near the end of the month there is now an exemption -

'If you prefer to tax in the last few days of the month, there is now an exemption from the offence of not displaying a tax disc. This exemption covers the first five working days of the month and allows time for the new disc to arrive in the post.'
