This is great New Zealanders are great at finding loopholes in the law, smart too, they should be lawyers, unfortunatly the gig is up.

The scam came to light when a Christchurch woman told a local radio station she had paid just $36 US to register her car, instead of the usual $113, by registering it as a "noncommercial hearse" to carry dead animals. The woman's definition of carrying dead animals: taking frozen chickens home from the supermarket.

I think when people are doing that, it's a sign you've gone a little too far with charges and fees ¬¬

hehe Wellard.

Memnoch; cheating insurance companies doesnt count, in fact, it is classed a good deed.

Just like it is everyones Duty to rip off the tax department at some point.
