Law / Used Vehicle Bought in Poland - Registration Question [15]

A written donation (darowizna) maybe?

You have to donate it because only "owners" - people named in the contract are registered with their cars. Further details in the article.

In order for a car in Poland to be put into service, it should be registered, have proof of registration, and be provided with legalized license plates and inspection sticker.

Each car put into service must be registered. Registered cars must be new vehicles purchased in Poland, acquired in the secondary market , which had once recorded by the previous owner, imported from abroad , and even vintage vehicles . Put into service vehicles are registered abroad , but only if they conform to the required technical conditions and have been provided with a license plate number , which consists of the letters of the Latin alphabet and Arabic numerals , and a driver is carrying a document that will confirm the registration .

Cars imported from non-EU countries, after the final clearance of import duty, are put into circulation within 30 days. In contrast, the owner of the car imported from EU countries must register it in Poland within 30 days.

Food / Polish Eating Habits [87]

Unhealthy = delicious, at least in Silesian cooking. All these roladas, kluski, buchty and the thick sauces mniam mniam...

Travel / Which train in Poland am I less likely to get shanked on? [30]

What happens to people who ride the trains in Poland?

A few years ago my things were stolen when I was slipping in a train. The train was "osobowy" and it was a mess (especially the toilet but all around was also dirty). The PKP wasn't good those days and "osobowy" trains looked mostly like hell. I haven't travelled by train since then and things might have changed for the better but I am not aware of the actual situation.

History / Endecja - State Sponsored Anti Semitism 1935 - 1939. [138]

What about renaming the topic in e.g. State organized illegal actions against Jews, Leftists, Trade Union Leaders and some other groups in Poland and some other countries before WWII?

Both happened, in the end the Jews had to contend with both organised business and goverment based backlash as well as social one, when peple realised jewish practices were ethnic based they obviously did not appreciate it.

You haven't provided any reason for state actions against its own citizens yet.

Yes, there was a regular economic war between Jewish and Polish businesses since Jews attempted to monopolize areas based on ethnicity (working with other Jews targetting non-jewish business) so it wasnt specifically against Poles but against all non-Jews.

Again: Are you serious? Wouldn't it be a case for the poor Polish businesspeople to better organize themselves instead of engaging the state authorities to start actions against its own citizens?

Rubbish, majority of Jews were pro-Soviet and enacted policies that were meant to bankrupt polish businesses everywhere they could, that pretty much makes them enemies of Poland and enemies you fight.

Oh yeah? Poor Polish businesspeople. Are you serious? Btw, I edited my post, I am just starting to contribute to this forum and my English is far from being perfect. I am sorry.

Given that Jews entertained racist marketing policies and anti-Polish pro-communist movement all i can say is ifully support endecja's reprisals.

You've got a minority thats an enemy of your country and actively works to destroy it, you limit their freedom, polish Jews should be glad they didnt face court martial for treason and trials for racism.

Only about 10.000 Jews fought Bolsheviks, more then 150.000 joined them, in 1921 the war was over so you were cought lying again.

Nothing can really justify actions of a sovereign state against its ethnic minorities, might there have been any in Poland or anywhere else.
