This is thanks to the FIVA (Informed Vehicle Index)that the police or the civilian guard can consult telematically at the time and thus know whether the registration is secure or not.
FIVA is a database managed by the Insurance Compensation Consortium and aims to help the persons involved in an accident or the authorities at any time to obtain relevant information on the safety of vehicles.
