You borrow your sister's car and are stopped on the A28 near Nijkerk for a speed check. The officer asks nothing about the APK. At home it turns out the car's APK expired two weeks ago. What applies to you?

1. No problem: the officer did not ask and I showed nothing
2. Only my sister is liable, because she is the owner of the car
3. I was driving illegally; the police can check the APK in a system
