No, I've not! I'm just going from the tax avoiding types and kids on motorbikes without licenses etc - not exactly normal in a
"good" neighbourhood, hence the conclusion jumped to  Not really the point though, if it's not reflectored etc up and has sharp
edges, it's a danger to other road users and it doesn't belong on the road, it belongs on your drive.

ah no he's a good lad, he's an apprentice grounds keeper at the golf course, he's got a 50cc bike and license etc now, he just loves
bikes since he was about 6 and his dad got him a dirt bike for when they were over at the caravan, and he rode it round the grounds of the caravan
park and sometimes on the street when his dad was about, his dad's got his own business as a landscape gardener, and the ones that complain
sometimes teach the violin
hard;y a trouble causeing neighbourhood.
as for me, it was either put it on the street as i needed the garage space, or weld my mates car in the street, where i'm sure blinding the
residents would cause much more of an issue. its the only time its been off the drive, ever, and i've had it a long time.... a very long time...

From the sound of the way your country operates, you'll be in the slammer for at least 5 years, maybe more, depending on Mrs. Kravitz down the
street's testimony as to your unsavory character. Don't worry, I'm sure someone will come to visit you!

Just a thought, car dealers temporarily park new unregistered vehicles on the road during delivery - the cops don't seem to mind.
Clearly this is not the same as parking for a few days.

But it the police got shirty the dealer would stick his trade plates on which seem to have Police & Law repelling powers.
Scot's do it better in Kilts.

(all guesswork & looking forward to the answer as it could be interesting)
As I said, it was before SORN (probably about 20 years before) and the point behind it was that it had no engine, gearbox or propshaft, therefore it
was impossible to drive at all. I think that you will find that the definition of a 'motor vehicle' has since been re-drawn and as such
until it is registered now there is probably little that they could do, after all. until such time as it is registered as a 'motor
vehicle' it could just be a work of art in progress that resembles a vehicle.
Once something is 'registered' as a 'motor vehicle' of what ever type or class then the powers that be seem to have you by the
proverbials and it must taxed, test, and insured or SORN'ed and clearly off the public highway or right of way. Whether it has an engine and
drive train or not.
edit bit.
Times and legalities have changed greatly since the 50's, back in the 50's it was legal to have a gun in your house to defend your
property against burglars, now we have to make sure that they don't hurt themselves whilst on our property. Governemts these days are all about
control and 'taxation'. The motorist now is just another source of finance to the government, you are damned if you do and damned if you
don't.
Rant over.
