Don't be a victum

Seems the solution to not passing smog or not having insurance is to steal the registration tag from some strangers license plate. Keep on truckin' dude.

The woman of my dreams got a ticket a week ago. Someone had stolen the registration tab from her car. Parking person slapped paper under the wiper blade, she went to the police department, charged a $10 service fee for a fix-it ticket. From the police department to the DMV so we could get a new tag. CaChing $18, even though she had paid next years fees. It was in everyones computer.

What cracks me up is her new tag arrived one week later.

Solution is to cut an X on the tag, when clever Clem tries to take it they usually, I'm told, peel the sucker from the left or right, soon as they see what is happening, they leave, I'm told...

Exact same thing happened to a close friend. My solution is 1) always remove lasst years tag to avoid buildup. 2) After pressing on the new tab, I score it diagonally with my fingernail in both directions. This definitely works because my old tags are an SOB to get off the next year for replacement.

In the UK we had the equivalent of a tag...A disc in your windshield showing that you had paid your dues, they would get stolen on a regular basis by bad guys...

We still have that but we are now also on a big brother database, the police all have ANPR, (automatic number plate recognition), in their vehicles. It constantly reads number plates, matches you to their tax/insurance/roadworthy/criminal database and notifies the cop if it gets a hit.......

In fact they often simply sit at the edge of the highway waiting on a "Ping"........If you have no insurance, they can take your car immediately and crush it.....
