EU to simplify crossborder vehicle re-registration

Published

on



http://www.euronews.com/ Life for those wishing to re-register their car in another part of Europe may soon be about to get easier. Changing number plates continues to be one of the biggest bureaucratic gripes for many motorists switching countries inside the EU. Numerous technical tests, double payment and other red tape remain common complaints.

But, Brussels is vowing to end the administrative nightmare within the next year or so. Under the European Commission’s plan, member countries must make re-registration procedures for cars, and other vehicles, including trucks, much simpler.

Eventually, that should also make buying second hand vehicles elsewhere in the EU and returning home, easier. In addition, it could be good news for tourists wishing to rent. Currently car rental companies face difficulties moving vehicles around the bloc.

”If we see savings in our logistical costs, the fact we’re in an extremely competitive market, means some of those savings will reduce rental prices, that’s clear,” said Didier Fenis, Managing Director of Europcar Belgium.

But the latest proposal falls short of a pan-European registration certificate. As euronews’ Audrey Tilve explains: ”In many ways, a simpler solution might have been to abolish national plates and have one single European registration. For the moment, however, that is a road Europe doesn’t seem to want to go down.

    I guess you've never been in North America, over here each canadian province or territory and each american state with its own plates, its own motto, and on top of that each province or state offers dozens of choices of different plates in all colors and graphics, would you like to know how many colorful plates I get to see on a simple drive from Toronto to Florida?
    One plate for pretty much everybody: EXTREMELY BORING, my friend.

    Unless you're dumb or purely ignorant, or computer illiterate, nowadays you can find pretty much anything on the Internet, right?
    But of course, different story if you were from… China LOL
    Stay safe.

    Each EU country should put a wording (a phrase) on its LPs, for Ontario, Canada is YOURS TO DISCOVER, Florida: THE SUNSHINE STATE, etc., also in Ontario we are allowed to order any combination of numbers and/or characters of a total of 8, called Personalized Plates, for instance LOVELIFE or BADBOY4U, as long as no racist, sexist, trivial, etc. meaning, anything up to 8 characters is LEGAL on Ontario Plates. Also graphics on the very same plates. Anybody against that in EU?
