A court in Sweden ruled on Monday the country's transport authority must find a way to get licence plates to Tesla that are being blocked by postal workers, the Aftonbladet newspaper reported.
It’s not even the swedish transportation agency workers that are refusing.
The post office workers are the ones refusing to deliver it. Since swedish regulation requires the plates to be delivered via PostNord, the STA had its hand tied until the court injunction basically gave them temporary permission to ignore the regulation.
The court hasn’t told them to ignore these regulations. They just told them that they have 7 days to make sure that Tesla gets its plates. But they are as you said forced to by their own rules to only give them out through PostNord because of a contract they have.
Yeah it was pretty obvious from the beginning that refusing to deliver essential government goods wasn’t going to go over well
They haven’t really refused though. It’s the workers that are sympathy striking.

The injunction says to get the plates to Tesla using any means, including direct delivery.
We’ll see what transportstyrelsen will do about this. They have rules which say that they can only give out plates through PostNord.
