Is it true that police permission is required to change the colour of your car when re-painting??

In Canada you can paint your car 1000 colours at once, and you never go to the Police for anything. Its a personal choice. You can change engines...anything at all. Complete freedom of choice,,,,if you asked a Policemen permission for something like that, they would think that you are out of your mind :)

To get permission for repainting either another colour or the same colour you have to go to traffic police department

You do not need permission from the police to paint your car another colour in North America. I suppose it's done here to try and make it more difficult to hide stolen cars?

mmyke, it is not a horrible system. This is the correct procedure by the traffic department. I believe most countries do the same. What about your home country?

yes it is right.

you need permission from Traffic Dept to change the color of your car.

and even in some cases if you are repainting your car with the same color you might required a permission also
