So as a South African we understand that the need for extra security but has the rational for the New Number plate renewal of every five years gone to far?
So its said that the retro - reflective coating that i quote is "Simular to road signs " only carries a 5 year warranty and because of this it needs to replaced every 5 years. If this is the case then why do road signs not get replaced every 5 years as they are subject to same if not worse conditions every day ?
I understand the need for the new Number Plate but cant understand the rational behind having to get a new set every 5 years. And lets not forget that it was dearly noted that no one is mentioning the cost aspect involved in this.
