Swiss1960 Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 You were told the correct thing, report the loss to the police, get a report and go back to DLT to order a replacement plate. Happened to me 2 years ago, PITA, but that's more or less the same I would need to do in Switzerland 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agusts Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 (edited) Maybe can still find it on the route ....! (well, long shot I guess). I now make a good colour copy of my tax and put it in one of those flimsy tubes on the bike, original is with me...

eisfeld Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Wrong topic title (you didn't lose your license), all caps, wrong forum... too stressed out? ???? Go to the DLT, tell them the situation and ask what you should do. You are not supposed to ride without a plate or document proof that the bike was recently purchased. The road tax sticker wouldn't help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
