It’s the long anticipated (by reddit) crackdown on expired temporary tags.

Next let’s do driving with your blinker on !

The dipshits in this town who don't use their turn signals infuriate me to no end.

It's like, how the fuck would you like it if you're just cruising along on the highway and some asshole merged in front of you without using their signal? You'd be pretty upset if you had to suddenly hit your brakes and swerve a bit just because someone couldn't do the bare minimum of paying attention while they drive - you know, the only job you have when you drive.

Damn straight I have been waiting for it. When I pull up behind someone with paper tags that expired in 2021, I think the chances are pretty good that they don't carry insurance and probably don't even have a valid license.

Fr? I’ve never renewed them before cause I’m 19 and got two year plates at 17 but they cost like 500 dollars it was fucking ridiculous

It’s more than $12, but most of that $500 was probably the tax.

You do need to pay personal property tax. And had you paid that in 2022 you'd have only had to play the $12 for plates ($24 for 2 year). But not you're in 2023 and will have to pay both years personal property tax, fines for not tagging your car, and you'll be limited to one year plates. Also you'll likely need an inspection, another $12.

Welcome to being an adult, you don't get to just coast through life. And unfortunately our education system doesn't teach the basic skills of adulthood.

Yeah no I’ve noticed the whole “education system failed” deal lmao. The inspection stickers here are definitely a little confusing, like does it mean that it was inspected in April of 21 or did it expire in April of 21… also forgot to mention my tags are from my old car (switched em over at the dmv) but I bought my current car in may of 22 and I already paid my tax when I bought and registered it did I not?

It’s not that expensive to renew your registration and since you let them expire you’ll have to pay a late fee now

Not sure what you mean by driving with your blinker on? Might piss you off but there is no law saying you have to use a blinker when driving

Oh wow I had no idea thanks for digging up the info, now if we can get a couple people to read it we might actually begin to get some more people to follow it
