Where a vehicle licence or certificate of registration is lost, destroyed or rendered illegible, the owner of the vehicle may obtain a duplicate vehicle licence or certificate of registration from the Director by paying the prescribed fee.
If a vehicle licence or certificate of registration referred to in subsection (1) is subsequently found, the holder of the duplicate licence or duplicate certificate of registration shall forthwith surrender to the Director the duplicate vehicle licence or duplicate certificate of registration.
A person who knowingly retains or has in that person's possession —
both an original and duplicate vehicle licence; or
both an original and duplicate certificate of registration, commits an offence and is liable on summary conviction to a fine of three hundred dollars or to imprisonment for three months, or to both.
