DVLA Site Not Loading

I wonder if there will be .........The ability for someone to open up a shop in your local High Street to do all the DVLA stuff over the counter. Just imagine being able to go in and talk to someone who can do the changes of keeper and get the tax paid and refunded instantly plus all the other things DVLA do, for a fee.

 

I can go into the central High Street bookshop here and do that now, and there is instant service as the shop is connected live to the central computers. It is actually quicker and easier than on line from home.

 

I doubt any gubbermint would want that sort of carry on. This country is meant to make money as its citizens try to comply with its ever-increasing red tape and daft rules, designed to increase the brainpower of the criminal but reduce many senior citizens to near tears.

I'm not brave enough to start a new thread about this car tax caper, so here's my question:

 

Someone (not on here) said that if you had already taxed a vehicle BEFORE the start of October, you could sell it with the tax remaining left on it. Is this true?

On the Govt vehicle detail check site it says the new owner must tax before driving, even on stuff taxed before this month.
