Madam, - Processing the paper work involved in the purchase of a used car produced the following response times: insurance: 21 days; National Car Test Service: 22 days ; Vehicle Registration Office: 41 days.
Failure to produce any of the documents referred to above within 10 days of a request by a Garda leaves the motorist liable to conviction. Should not these bodies be obliged to respond in a similar time frame? - Yours, etc.,
Dr A.J.ROUS, St. Aubyn's Court, Shanganagh Road, Killiney, Co Dublin.
