Actually it's not.
They hold all your details on a database. They see you without a tax disc and check the database. I think there's a gracew period before they get pissy about you not displaying it.

Yep, I've driven around without a tax disc displayed loads of times.
I'm well shit at organising simple things.

Yeah
I used to drive my MG without displaying the disk as it didn't have a hood and I was worried some retard would nick it to try and claim the remainder back.

The fact that it was historic and therefore free probably wouldn't have registered with your more special class of retard.

Makroney is correct

This is true for online
if you go the post office there is no grace period, you must display it straight away.

Techincally true
but if they know it's taxed from the database all they ever do is occasionally stop you and give you a talking to (see above)

Ben Fogle is right about Makroney being right
