Yes, being an aging parent with teenagers is a struggle. Only advice I can offer is to stay involved in their lives or they will drift away from you. A simple thing like going to their room every night and saying good night, even if they are 18, makes a big difference.

Quick question: if your license disc expires, I know you have a grace period, but should that lapse as well. Is there a point where you can no longer renew, that you would have to re-register or get COR again?

If your license disc expires you start paying penalties. If you get caught with an expired disc, you will have to pay a fine + penalties.
As for how long you can have an expired disc with a registered car, no idea. My gut tells me forever but if you ever want to get a disc renewed or your car transferred to someone else, you are going to be scooped for a lot of money.

Yeah, it’s already adding up 
I have learnt that.
Yeah, kinda feeling the same.
Thanks for the feedback, time will tell. Will have to keep monitoring it and see what I can do.

What is worse the fine has to be paid at your local people friendly court house. The part I hate the most. Also, I added it in on my original reply, if you want to get your car sold/ownership transferred, you are stuck and have to pay penalties.

I see the fine shows up in my FNB app, so seems to be payable via that platform which is preferrable.

That is great news. Standing in a covid line at the courthouse is not fun and also an all day endeavour.

With my wife’s car I missed the renewal date by a couple of months since I got the expiry date mixed up. The fine basically worked out to around R150 but what also happens is that you pay per month over, the good news about that is that your new expiry date will be a year from when you now pay.

Can the heat now go away please
@Beo be warned cops have been taking disks from people who are behind in payment, they are not allowed to as far as I understand. Also if you are in any kind of fender bender your insurance will laugh at you

You are correct! That happened to my wife many years ago. Insurance didn’t pay because the license wasn’t paid up. Also she never updated where she lived with insurance so was a double whammy. After that I moved her over to my insurance.

Good morning, folks.
@1nF4m0u5: Do you mean you cut yourself deep enough to have to go to hospital and you wanted to drive yourself home from hospital?
